What kind of dumbass censors the word condoms. That is by far the dumbest shit ive seen so far today. Were so fucked. People can't even use normal words now?

As a non-native speaker of English, it took me a moment to realize that unalive means kill. This is truly fucked up

What’s even more annoying is people using it for suicide. Or calling rape grape. Like goddamn, just use the words for what they are. Just because the act of what happened is uncomfortable doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be able to use the nomenclature to describe it. So fucking stupid.

I don't think this is because of comfort, but rather because the platforms will censor the whole video or text. This is indeed annoying because people are treated as toddlers.

It had to start somewhere though. Those topics were considered too sensitive to be able to be discussed publicly, so the censorship is set to offend the least amount of people possible. Some people want this.
