why tf is the word drunk censored.

[–] SanderZeldenthuis@nord.pub 43 points 2 days ago

that's it now they know you are dr*nk

[–] Klear@piefed.world 42 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Engagement bait. Just downvote and move on next time.

[–] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Pretty sure lemmy doesnt track any engagement except votes.

[–] zikzak025@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

That's assuming this image was originally made to be shared on Lemmy. But most content in this community almost certainly comes from somewhere else first.

We inherit secondhand social media engagement metrics.

[–] bus_factor@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Pretty sure you can sort by activity. Also, most stuff on here was on a different platform first.

[–] markz@suppo.fi 4 points 2 days ago

Sort by active is calculated from votes and age of last reply, but the number of comments itself is pretty useless.

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

People copy stuff from elsewhere. This is the internet. Blaming OP is just st*pid

[–] Klear@piefed.world 6 points 2 days ago

Nah, fuck anyone normalising this shit.

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 31 points 2 days ago (1 children)

OP can edit and claim this as their own work:

[–] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 days ago

EXCUSE ME???? CHILDREN MIGHT SEE THIS???

[–] socsa@piefed.social 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Useless censorship has become a shibboleth for social media brain rot. People do it to mark themselves as current on social media trends. That's all it is. There's no evidence that it has anything to do with content strikes.

[–] funkajunk@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Your use of the word shibboleth is a shibboleth

[–] elevenbones@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 days ago

Thanks you 🙏, I had no idea what that word was

Mind your fucking language! /j

They didn't even cover the entire letter. It just looks like there's stuff stuck to the fourth wall.

[–] chunk6235@piefed.social 1 points 2 days ago

Engagement bait

[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Information is monetized by censorship.

[–] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (3 children)

No, in general. I just think it’s funny that the internet was invented to transfer information and the first thing we did with it was figure out how to censor it - copyrighted media, news, p*rnography, the word pornography, etc.

[–] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

C*nsorshp really has gotten outta hand.

[–] terranoid@lemmy.cafe 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

It's not to censor the idea. It's that dupe detection bots use ocr text detection and fucking with letters can defeat it

[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

And the bots would then take down the image with the offending text?

[–] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

yeah. thats not lemmy though right?

[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Well, I mean it’s right there in the image. Although, I guess Lemmy doesn’t have anything directly to do with censoring it.

[–] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I asked why OP censored the image.

[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Is it to fool censorship bots that use OCR to recognize banned words?

[–] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

does lemmy use OCR or have banned words?

[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Probably not. I’m assuming that the censored image is from another platform that does, or is pre-censored for general reposting.
