This is what I particularly hate about self censorship
If you are behaving a certain way to please an algorithm or an advertiser, you're just cosplaying as a bot—particularly on lemmy where all it's going to accomplish is annoyance
Say whatever the fuck you like, it's more human
But what if what I want to say sometimes resembles the self censorship anyway, because my anxieties make me want to avoid coming off as too "mean" regardless of what some corpo thinks?
I self censor because my intrusive thoughts are especially unkind to people who don't deserve it. But they'll pry the word fuck out of my cold, dead fucking hands.

What's with the horse obsession?
I swear at this point I dreamed this, but I have a distinct memory about an underground newspaper somewhere that was getting hassled by censorship interests, that published an issue with the following on the cover:
Fuck. Shit. Cunt. Piss.
Serious ask - if anyone remembers this and can toss up a link about it, I'd appreciate it. Have looked a few times and turned up nothing, pretty sure it came up when I was in school researching random stuff related to the U.S. circa 1960s-1970s but could be wrong.
Assuming I didn't dream this, always wanted a framed photocopy of it.
I have watched this man try (and fail) to get dropped by his VPN sponsor by doing ever increasingly unhinged skits.
He truly walks the walk.
Remember when that one American restaurant chain was the most popular shit because the social media person started posting brainrot on twitter? Or the funny caffeine powder with big anime tiddies? Same effect.
I don't recall the caffeine powder actually. Unless that's the one sponsoring all the streamers and such with the cups that have big ol Anime tiddies printed on it, in which case I didn't know they were funny.
Or the funny caffeine powder with big anime tiddies?
I do not remember this
There is a big fucking difference between swear words, slurs and straight up death threats.
Right, but which of the following will be deemed unacceptable by the AI scanners of the corporate behemoth?
Well, my victims only die from secondary infections, not the act of skinning them alive.
Cool
Just make it incredible. I will feed you to a pack of wolves.
My children will watch your clones fight to the death.
Okay but like real talk, i had to walk past like ten cop cars today, and had to constanrly be reminding myself that i do not carry a gun, and nobody would be on my side if i did every time i saw one those scum bullying a kid or beating a homeless guy or whatever other unsavory shit i couldn't tell. I wanted to shout "fuck off" "go home“¹. I wanted to kill them. For so many reasons. I wanred to take these foreign invaders, these thugs ruining the place i live, and i wanted to kill them². It was disgusting. I took videos of one³. Not for the first time. I want them out. I don't love or trust the people around me, but I'm not afraid they're going to kill someone every time i see my neighbors. I dont have to be stone terrified. I don't, for anyone but the cops, memorize fucking incantations that i know aren't worth shit if nobody's watching, if the camera can't pick up how white my skin is, like im some dark ages fucking peasant and they're the actual fucking devil.
How many people do you have to terrorize like that before we agree to kill you? Is there a number? I feel like there's a number. Would any of you, if you saw someone in like real desperate life or death trouble, like they'd been shot or something, you went to help, but you saw it wasnt a person; it was a cop. how many of you would have to think for even a second before just forgetting you heard anything?
¹because cops never seem to police the communities thry live in. Im not insane for noticing that, right? Like, if youve ever seen a cop show its id to buy cigarettes or something, the addresses are never anywhere near where they work. Sometimes like ten hours drive away. Always. It's not like a one off thing. If you see a cop in uniform: its not from here, and does not live here. That is an invader with a uniform and a gun, and you are paying it's paycheck, wealth extracted from you. Up in smoke. Less than useless to anything you might want.
²yeah it sounds kinda faschy, because they say it constantly, and it's a confession every fucking time, can we stop letting them get away with it someday? Fucking please? Is this a special privilege we grant only to the kkk, or can i get all banshee-pilled and get public support to just fucking murder whoever i want with impunity, if thats how we're doin this?
³didnt even know where to send it for like an hour. The inboxes are closing so fast, not that documenting the horrors ever helped. At some point it just feels like im recording b roll for a snuff film. At what point am i complicit in the horrors? Because im not proving anything to anyone. For fucks sake, if you still dont believe police are like this and you haven't been in a coma so long that this is the first beaytiful and unfortunately horrible momemt we have both been conscious on this earth, then you simply will not be comvinced.⁴ at what point is a witness just an audiemce, a guarantor that nothing here is acrually wrong? Is anyone dumb enough to still believe any court is ever going to hold any cop accountable for anything ever?
⁴hey, coma person. Okay so everything you loved and held dear has, if you're very lucky, been burned to ashes and forgotten, but more probably butchered denatured and sold back to you full of poison. Trust nothing, everything you loved is gone, and any of the vicious howling corporate svavengers willing enough to defile its corpse and wear strips of its face like a mask to slip past your defenses is probably not as good a friend as the percent original skin might suggest. But. This is an iphone, and its amazing. Yeah you just... So see? The future's not better or worse! Just different!
That's an incredible response.
Oh man I got banned from AITA years ago for calling the clearly incredible asshole third party "cunt", cuz that's a slur.
Having been watching Australian streamers right before didn't help but come on...
That's basically our informal period point
I will not be food for monsters. If their blade finds my flesh, may they drown in my blood
Well you just created a new fetish. Thanks.
I always thought Tumblr was mostly filled with sensitive souls and erotic fan-fiction.
This is true until you find the hard-core bdsm shit.
There are some strange rabbit holes on Tumblr.
NSFW Content isn't allowed on Tumblr
You can say ***ger with a hard 'r' if you want. Watch:
Ahem,
GINGER!
V'ger!
Woah! Fucking with the G-word is just not on!
NAGGER!
Stop nagging! So annoying!

Whoa, I remember him! asdfmovie was my childhood!
Ballad of everyone who played it safe when Facebook came out.
Honestly, this is why I'm here. I never say anything too crazy but I hate that the Internet is being turned into five sites that all bootlick big corporations.
Cuntshit motherfucking removedons
Pick up a fuckgun and join the resistance
I don't like self censorship to appease some algorithm. But if you threaten to skin me alive I will at the very least report you to the mods. You can have freedom of speech without being an asshole.
Listen here you little shit! I'll boil your hide in marmalade and eat your ass for breakfast!
Promise?
yeah but what about my freedom to skin people alive your repressing me
removed needs a lesson in a little thing called "negative rights": you skinning GP alive denies me my right to skin GP.
Asdf my beloved
There's quite a gap between swearing and threatening to skin someone alive, I'd say.
I do miss the old internet where most people were smart enough to not use their real name and to not take people too seriously.
Man I'm old enough to remember if you posted a photo of yourself online you'd get ridiculed to high heaven over it. I remember one dude in an IRC room I used to frequent linking a photo of himself and people just went nuts making fun of him.
Does no one remember the "Hello My Future Girlfriend" kid?
What a cunt.
You hurt my feelings.
I got banned from Twitter before the purchase, and Tumblr years before that for being early to the public hyperviolence irony memes.
Coca Cola is grinding up Palestinian children to color coke.
Is this guy replying to himself?
Am I replying to this?
the world also really needs more yonic imagery to balance things out
For those who (like me) don't know, yonic is the coordinate term to phallic
This is how you get places like 4chan. I'd rather have a place where everyone is nice and bigots get banned than have a "marketplace of ideas" where everyone is an asshole. Really cool that you want your freedom of saying "I want to skin you alive" but what about my freedom of not having to get that said to me?
I don't know if they know that some people are nice because they want to, not because they have to.
What about not having rules against certain words but against certain behaviours?
Forums that were moderated by small communities were the shit.
Being able to report something and have an actual person review it is a luxury few face on modern social media.
one of the things that i think the post talks about is fostering a culture. extremely over-the-top threats are normal on tumblr because it's a place where everyone is nice. ironically, less overt stuff is taken more seriously because you can tell that it's not in jest.
Thats the beauty of the fediverse imo. Find a cosy instance that suits you. Block instances that don't
I principally agree with you, it's why I use reddit/lemmy and not 4chan.
But there is a difference, albeit hard to convey correctly through text. But I think some of the extreme responses mentioned are the ones in the banter type. It's a kind of response when someone jokingly says "Star Wars and Star Trek is pretty much the same" and you go "I'll skin you alive" due to the unjust comparison. It sure as hell don't work with strangers, but it can within an community since everyone knows neither party is serious about it. Which is what the original post kind of says that it can work in the right community.
Oh I totally get that.
But the way OP puts it just reminds me too much of what the "free speech absolutists" are spouting and we've all seen where that leads.
But it's also how you get places like Tumblr
As a Zoomer this is what I hate about a lot of Millennials. They think allowing people to do anything that might make anyone a little uncomfortable leads to allowing Nazis to run rampant. I'm not even the abrasive person but... some people really DO need a thicker skin. There's a huge difference between extreme expressions of anger, and genocide advocacy. In fact, a lot of bigotry is disturbingly polite.
You folks are censoring yourselves while I'm over here fed posting like the greasy American-Scot that I am! Sanity is for WASPs and Mormons I am neither so I shall swear, drink, and kill like my ancestors or at least I shall idolize such actions. Kind hard to commit hate crimes when things like modern forensics exist.
Their wealth is not in dollars but in joules, in megatons, in things that will literally kill you so hard your great grandkids are still dying of it (hey vietnam!)
And they still fuck it up and shitthe bed constantly (h.... Hey vietnam. Afghanistan? Nobody?)
And kill their own great grandkids with the same dumbass cancers.
So maybe tell jeff bezos you will rewire his nerves into a wood chipper that feels avery chip as agony and a dick endowed with all the cancerous powers of his favorite economic system powered by a succession of captive stars, so tjat long after the last natural lights in existence have have flickered and died, he can still be choking on his own dick for a couple billion years. (Which honestly, if you were to guess what it was all for,is this even a stretch?)
Or zuckerberg. Or whichever (but you know the one we're all thinking of)
Someone that I know whose gone through some shit and works as a reporter for WaPo found out a that they had cancer (they've been in remission for a while now so LFG) and someone sought to be a shithead about it, I told them that I hope that they accidentally sound themselves one day and I got sent to Twitter Jail, worth it, assholes have never deserved being creatively being called assholes more than right now.
Oh man, I fucking cuss all the time here on Lemmy. Tumblr is a goddamn church compared to here.
May I add "twat swatter" to the list?
"Be edgy, fuck the system", said the soyboy on two extremely mainstream sites while not actually getting banned from either.
(Is calling someone a soyboy worse than saying you'll skin them alive?)
It's sort of a nazi insult, as in, insult that neonazis use.
True, but I'd say it's more something folks pick up along the modern social media-to-nazi pipeline.
Not everyone who says it is a full-blown neonazi, but if a friend or family member suddenly starts using it unironically, you should sit them down and ask them what the fuck is going on ASAP.
I agree with everything but the last part.
We ARE animals. Thats why its so fucking sad we kill them by the millions.
Fuck all, y'all. Buncha rowdy cunts.
I got banned from Xitter 2 weeks after joining bc I was too savage with transphobes
