You didn't fucking curse one goddamn time in your reply.
But that's the stupid part. It's not even about cursing. It's about words like heroin, kill, rape, etc. I mean is this tiktok or what
Yeah, it's not about the choice of language someone uses, it's about simultaneously wanting to use a word but also not use it. At least for the self-censors.
And it's about someone else wanting to show others that thing, but for whatever reason deciding that some words used are too bad or something. And then doing it on words where the "problem" comes from the meaning rather than the word itself (unlike "fuck" or "shit" where they are "ok" topics but "unacceptable" terms to use and frequently used outside of their original meanings anyways).
Censorship is dumb in general (other than redacting personal information to prevent harassment), but this whole "I want to use words but not really use them" and "I think people should see this content, but they can't handle it without hiding some things" are extra dumb.
