This post has been reported. The reason given:
Engagement bait
I mean, if you feel people shouldn't be posting engaging content....
Leaving it up.
EDIT: people keep complaining. There's no rule against this, and the meme stands on its own without the line though the word.
-
Thank you for taking the time to respond. I guess I could have been more clear: this trend of half-assedly crossing out normal words is a clear manipulation tactic to increase the comment count of a post and boost engagement because people inevitably call out the bullshit in the comments section. It dilutes the discussion and becomes very tedious when it happens so often.
-
i would like to report this post. it seems to be bombing.
-
It's pretty obvious the report is due to the badly censored word. That's specifically done as engagement bait. And saying "that's how I found it" isn't an acceptable reason, anyone could very easily edit it out in a few seconds (Not that anyone did, just showing that there is absolutely no reason to post it with the engagement bait).
-
Just ignore it. If it works then we’re too stupid for it to matter anyway.
-
Ironically, if people (like you) just ignore the line then it won't drive engagement. You're writing multiple comments about how this is bait which is falling for what you consider bait. Personally, I didn't think much of it because it doesn't
fuckingmatter.

Stop. Censoring.
Normal.Words.-
I’d say: Stop censoring any words, please.
-
Or censor all words. Everybody shutting up would help a whole lot more than anything anyone could say. -
That's why I cross out "normal."
-
-
You failed, they only "censored" half of a word. And saying that's censoring is like putting one nail into a piece of scrap wood and calling it fine quality furniture.

why is the "Viole" in "Violence" crossed out?
-
I assume getting around TikTok and Meta algorithms that would automatically filter this image from public view.
Gotta make it safe and corpo friendly for the advertisers! 🙄
-
It probably just gets tagged as "spicy meme someone tried to censor", and still gets tracked and targeted the same way as the rest of the content. They know fully well what kind of post it is, a line is not going to break the algorithm

This post was made by a disgruntled viola player
-
They're not a fan of Tower of God and hate any reference to Ju Viole Grace.
-
Engagement bait to increase comments, this getting an algorithm boost. Report and move on.

You'll be happy to know that comments don't matter to the Lemmy algorithm.

The ranking is basically (upvotes-downvotes)/time. I don't know whether this is intended as "engagement bait", but it doesn't work.
-
You mean to prevent algorithmic censorship on other platforms where this may be crossposted.
Stop fedposting

Exactly why I can't take any of these weenies seriously when they spout this nonsense on whatever Pod Save Whatever episode they're on this week.
-
Not just politicians and definitely not only Americans. No one spouting the 'violence is not acceptable' actually means it. They don't mean to abolish the police, military, prisons, taxes, mandatory school...
It's just doublespeak, the violence I like is not violence so if someone responds to it with more violence I can condemn them, they are the violent ones not me.
-
Post is more related to political violence. The double standards of extreme condemnation when violence used against politicians while they do promote violence towards foreign populations (i.e. palestinians, jews or venezuelans) and local minorities (i.e. racial or radical groups).

THE BRITISH ARE COMING
but violence has no place in politics, we should just surrender

Fun fact: Writing on munitions can be considered a violation of the Geneva Convention. Under Article 23, it is forbidden to employ weapons with any substance intended to aggravate a wound. So unless that is a completely non-toxic marker, it could fall under that.
-
There is some distance between "intended" and "could conceivably". Good luck convincing the ICC that a nanoliter of ink is being used as a chemical weapon.
-
substance intended to aggravate a wound

So where does nce belong, then?
-
You don't understand. These motors aren't hitting anybody I know or care about, therefore I can feel no guilt about it
-
Ah yes. In order to highlight the creators passion of playing the violin, the single-handedly put a bow through the
violpart of violence. Truly magnificent.
-
Where did the trend of writing on munitions come from? Is it Ukraine or were there cases before that? I'm trying to figure why would anyone ever do that, to me it sounds the same as mass shooter gun scribbles kind of lunacy.
-
I know we did it some in ww1.
Edit: I didn't expect anyone to have researched this lol

When the censoring is diegetic.

republiQans. They're the only ones who sign ordnance.

Well yeah, the republiQans like to "play" wartime. Presuming they don't have to actually do anything hard or dangerous. That's why they're all about it.
