Why, in the name of god, does Lemmy’s obsession with censorship include the word “jerk?”
It’s my personal choice. I want to be able to show the content of my posts and comments to anyone (edit: not only adults or unsupervised peers).
It’s bullshit and you should stop.
It’s a pattern of destroying information over puritanical nonsense. Treat people like adults.
I can’t find this being a problem. What circles do you move in where “jerk” is a problematic word?
Pretty dumb, honestly. If anything it just adds a Streisand effect to it as people try to figure out what’s censored.
Not that censoring it has any value whatsoever. Like if a child sees that, so fucking what?
dont listen to the others. u are free to censor your own content; it is still completely readable. people just want to complain about something.
The censored work is
Jerk
As in Jerk chicken, Jerkey, etc.
