Why is there self-censorship on the word "rape"?
-
Entirely warranted fear of overbearing content moderation on corporate social media.

I guess that's one of the reasons I don't use corpo social media, goddamn. Use the words you need to, for fucks sake.

Sadly it’s a great way to get your post hidden or deleted. I hate it too.

it’s mostly a trend from tiktok… there a huge list of words you can’t use, and substitution words.
but now it’s habit for them and you see youtube videos where they say shit like “and so he graped her til she was unalive” and not thinking anything of it…. -
I've never seen any evidence that it's actually warranted and not just a superstitious offering to the algorithm

Capital is taking away our ability to speak to power about societal problems.
It's not a silly little thing, it's a real problem that we need to address. Nearly a quarter of the US adult population is functionally illiterate. They are taking our power to communicate away slowly, little bits at a time. They start with the big, heavy topics that make people upset, the topics that might make people rally together and push back against the system. Rape? Murder? Nazis? Suicide? No no no, those aren't acceptable so we don't say that. Monkey see no evil, say no evil, hear no evil. Be quiet and buy your new phone and buy your celebrity energy drinks.
Tune in tomorrow to see what the next banned ideas are.
Grab your rake and shovel and work those fields, serf.
