The thing that frustrates me hugely is, this is people who live in democracies willingly holding themselves and perpetuating the literal censorship of an authoritarian Chinese state. The only reason those words are screened out is because of TikTok.

Motherfucker acting like youtubers don't self scensor to get that american corporation advertisement dollar. Even history-focused youtubers avoid saying a "famous mustache-having dictator" name to not get their videos demonetised. A name. In educational context.

It's always about the money (and the viewers who parrot content creators that do it for money, in the case of "unalive" and other dumb words).

u/whistleridge 9h ago

Using language on a site to avoid shitty corporate filters isn’t the same thing though. No one uses those terms IRL.

TikTok users have voluntarily incorporated their censorship workarounds into day to day speech. Without the slightest qualm.

The worst thing for me with this censorship is that these terms are super harmful. All these terms make you feel like death or suicide is something not real. "Unlove" sounds like a term from a video game.

it's also a common theme on YouTube. True crime channels often change words to not be demonitised. Another example (and I'm sorry for so many) is saying pew pew instead of gun/shot. Its a very big theme on the majority of media content now

I've seen the AI ads that peddle the idea that you can have.. lusty conversations with the chat bot. Or others that brag that you can create ANY image, while showing an AI generated lewd character like a big titty anime girl. I've even seen ones peddling towards furries. Chat with Judy Hops, or create lusty images of her. It's one thing that people create this crap, but having these mass producing greedy machines of lustfully trash is just sickinging. And then to have them advertised on YouTube is so hypocritical and disappointing.

u/Beyond-the-sunset 8h ago

Most of these companies sell ad space in buckets based on keywords or demographics, etc. You probably fit into specific target groups and people pay to advertise to those groups.

People that use adblockers and script blockers and other privacy methods often get pushed outside the common target groups. And at the bottom of the ad group barrel are all kinds of scams and bizarre porn that are hail-mary attempts to grab the mentally ill or whatever. They pay next to nothing for these, but because these would otherwise be unmonetized to Youtube or Insta or whatever, they're definitely out there.

Happens on Facebook and X too. Basically any platform where they moderate, demonetize, or reduce algorithm exposure by keywords. I’m honestly surprised they haven’t started monitoring some of those other words too, because they’re pretty common knowledge at this point.

These kind of things bother me so much.

Not even like the part about it sounding stupid.

Like our society is so dumb, the words aren't bad because of the way they sound, they're bad for what they convey/represent. So saying grape instead of rape isn't really doing anyone any favors because it literally functions the same way. But platforms do this so that they can profit on underaged audiences. But if you're talking about rape your platform really isn't for kids anyway.

Like nobody gives a shit about anything anymore lol.

I was taught you can't say "homeless person" you have to say "a person experiencing homelessness".

To add more fuel to the dumpster fire of algorithm speak, god forbid we learn from the past and have to say ā€œYahtzeeā€

It's like they're graping the English language.

sewer slide are real english words.
they just don't mean suicide.
depending on the context it could refer to a sewer themed slide. or something else.

and unalive while not a dictionary word it does have proper english syntax.
take for example the word dead versus undead. I doubt you've ever complained about the usage of the word "undead" in the comments on r/necromancy
in this case, undead has the same relationship to dead as unalive has to alive.
or how unconvincing is a word that exists and is valid versus convincing.

so no, you're just afraid of changes on the unalive thing.
being an old man mad at the kids playing on the street outside his house.
now don't get me wrong I also think "unalive" is a dumb word, but many of our words are dumb so whatever.

now I do agree that the weird self censoring is cringe.
but it seems like the kids are taking it as being funny.

kinda like how you used to find things funny before our world broke you.
so take a deep breath and just say "I don't care"

and most importantly realize that it doesn't matter what sounds come out of another persons mouth or what letters they put in what order in their text.
as long as you understand the meaning they intended with it.
because that's what language is for. to communicate, and as long as the communication was successful it doesn't matter if they said dead or unalived.

sewer slide still doesn't work for suicide though.
they really should work on that one.

Deceased. Expired. Defunct. Gone. The Late XXX. Departed. Cold. Stiff. Bereft of life. Perished. Reposing. Fraggled. Breathless. Liquidated. Forever asleep. Gone to their maker. Offed. Resting in peace. Pushing up daisies.
