I hate headlines like this. The population is increasing, no shit ‘more people than ever before have XYZ.’ That’s because there’s more people now overall. Use the percentage or ratios of different times so you don’t look like you failed math.
I also bet there were less people starving to death 200 years ago. Because there were less people across the board you ignominious Muppets.
As I’ve been noticing it more across lemmy, what word did you type that got changed to “removed”?
The one I’ve seen is a swear but most others aren’t censored, and it seems to be an automated thing.
Edit: I suspect I figured it out so that’s at least 2 words, one a debatable slur and one an obvious swear but with no socio-political implications otherwise.
Damn, that sucks but thanks for the response. So far that brings the list to three two words and no rationale or common theme save for one that is a modern slur.
For reference, my list so far: 1: removed (B word for female dogs) 2: removed (R word, derogatory for people with handicaps) 3: bullshit (B-u word for literal bovine turds)
Edit: my bullshit wasn’t censored. Sorry to all the pooping cows.
The US primaries and the general election are two different things. Voting uncommitted in the primary expresses support for the Palestinian plight and does not give Republicans any ground....
Off topic: why is the B word the only swear censored on blahaj.zone? I’ve noticed it in other communities from there and most, if not all other swears are safe.
B: removedFuck shit ass cock dick pussy cunt
Either someone got mad for being called a B or they’ve got some conflicting thoughts on what justifies swearing and censorship.
Edit: might not be just blahaj, but that only extends my confusion.
As important as voting is, I don’t care what Taylor has to say about it. She and I are in vastly different economic, social, and professional circumstances, and her opinion means nothing to me.
So I’ve realized that in conversations I’ll use traditional terms for men as general terms for all genders, both singularly and for groups. I always mean it well, but I’ve been thinking that it’s not as inclusive to women/trans people....
You can install uBlock in Firefox, I highly recommend. I recently got into the Warhammer series so I’m spending a lot of time reading pages on the Fandom wiki, and the difference is like night and day.
1000% better.
Edit: I’m talking about the Android version of Firefox, just since I didn’t mention it.
The House this year has been mired in chaos, punctuated by a 15-round speakership vote, an eight-person regicide, flirtations with government shutdowns and policy stagnations. Next year’s elections could determine if the Senate follows suit.
There’s an episode of South Park where they go to the writing offices of Family Guy for whatever reason, and instead of actual writers, they have an aquarium tank full of manatees and plastic balls with words on them.
The manatees would bring the balls to the top of the tank, few at a time, and the staff would use the words on the balls as prompts for their new jokes/episodes.
The cordcutters subreddit was really nice, users constantly engaging in talks about better alternatives to cable/internet/streaming options.
The lemmy version is like an aquarium full of dead fish that nobody cares to clean out. The only ‘poster’ is a ‘news’ bot that just spams every article from cordcutters.com (most of which are just advertisements for deals/discounts).
At this point even ghost towns have more presence and/or engagement. If you block the ‘news’ bot, there’s next-to-nothing there.
Then explain what OP did wrong, in a non-derogatory way, give them alternatives to what they could say instead of just demeaning them.
Know what makes people look REALLY REALLY dumb? Talking down to people that don’t know better. Besides if you’re so smart, why don’t you educate the ignorant without insulting them?
Lol @ using that mental gymnastic to pretend you won an argument. People say don’t feed the trolls but if nobody gave the monkeys peanuts they wouldn’t dance like fools for our amusement.
Lol what personal attacks? I don’t know anything about you except that you clap your cymbals and dance to a guy playing a music box, like any well trained monkey on the street does. 🙉🎶🙊🎶🙈
