A few examples include s*x questions on askreddit, "this" comments, nolife powermods, jokes being more frequent than actual answers

Needlessly censoring words like sex. It wasn’t necessary on Reddit and it certainly isn’t necessary now.

    I agree. It's absolutely absurd that would say something along the lines of "Fuck, I got r*ped, what do I do?"

    I'm of the opinion that you shouldn't censor any words. If you feel the need to censor it, then just don't say it. If you want to discuss it, then be able to say it. You should be able to say something like "X called Y a nigger".

    I find it absolutely mind blowing that people are generally accepting that as okay on most social media platforms.

    I can only assume that people don’t understand why it was brought in on YouTube and TikTok in the first place because so many people do it when it isn’t remotely necessary. If you make your living posting on social media, then fair enough, I understand you need to fall inline with the rules of the platform. But why the hell would you self censor posts you don’t make money from? Utterly ridiculous.

    All they know is that The Algorithm won't show their posts if they use those words. How anyone can understand that and not see how incredibly fucked up that is, though, I don't know.
