More US parents than ever have paid leave this Mother's Day - but most still don't
  • I hate headlines like this. The population is increasing, no shit 'more people than ever before have XYZ.' That's because there's more people now overall. Use the percentage or ratios of different times so you don't look like you failed math.

    I also bet there were less people starving to death 200 years ago. Because there were less people across the board you ignominious Muppets.

    Microsoft's draconian Windows 11 restrictions will send an estimated 240 million PCs to the landfill when Windows 10 hits end of life in 2025
  • Damn, that sucks but thanks for the response. So far that brings the list to three two words and no rationale or common theme save for one that is a modern slur.

    For reference, my list so far: 1: removed (B word for female dogs) 2: removed (R word, derogatory for people with handicaps) 3: bullshit (B-u word for literal bovine turds)

    Edit: my bullshit wasn't censored. Sorry to all the pooping cows.

    Was Trump supporter Katie Britt caught in whopping lie about graphic sex trafficking story?
  • Fun rule of journalism, 'Betteridge's Law' : if a headline asks a question, the answer is almost always 'no'.

    Edit: lmao even the writer mentions in the first line. I mean why even try to argue your point after that?

  • As I've been noticing it more across lemmy, what word did you type that got changed to "removed"?

    The one I've seen is a swear but most others aren't censored, and it seems to be an automated thing.

    Edit: I suspect I figured it out so that's at least 2 words, one a debatable slur and one an obvious swear but with no socio-political implications otherwise.

  • Wholly agree with your point.

    Off topic: why is the B word the only swear censored on blahaj.zone? I've noticed it in other communities from there and most, if not all other swears are safe.

    B: removed Fuck shit ass cock dick pussy cunt

    Either someone got mad for being called a B or they've got some conflicting thoughts on what justifies swearing and censorship.

    Edit: might not be just blahaj, but that only extends my confusion.

    Trump Claims He Will Debate Biden 'ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, ANYPLACE'
  • If you're spreading disinformation that benefits Russia, it doesn't even matter what your ideologies are. You're still spreading disinformation on behalf of Russia.

    You can paint any moral picture you want, but that's the bottom line.

    'The Republican Party is going through some things': Maddow marvels at GOP veering into extremism
  • Lol my other post got removed, I guess I was right on the money about one of the mods being butthurt over being called a b°tch.

    After this parade of censorship, I can't imagine why someone would call them such a thing. /s

  • Your comment made me understand the 'joke' but it didn't make the comic funny. This is low-brow humor at absolute best.

  • veering into

    They've been extremists since at least the 60s, does this writer live under a rock?

    Edit: Also, why does this sub censor swears? Who does that help? What a shitty mod team.

    Edit2: Oh so they only censor the B word. Great job on the consistency removed mods

    Spider-Man 2 reportedly uses just 10% of the dialogue recorded by Venom’s voice actor
  • You can install uBlock in Firefox, I highly recommend. I recently got into the Warhammer series so I'm spending a lot of time reading pages on the Fandom wiki, and the difference is like night and day.

    1000% better.

    Edit: I'm talking about the Android version of Firefox, just since I didn't mention it.

    Will the Senate become the House?
  • If only the ones capable of doing that weren't the same people that profit off of the way it is currently...

    Not saying you're wrong, I very much agree. I guess I'm just jaded.
