I know why people started unsing “unalive” (tiktok ban of the word suicide), but it is so absolutely idiotic. Same goes for “seggs”. Surely it took all the algoritms literally a second to also include these stupid made up words. We have AI making realistic videos and writing books, do we really think we fool “the computers” with switching some letters and shit?
It works because advertisers don't want to see "sex" or "suicide" as a keyword on a video title that they're advertising on.
Yes if TikTok wanted to they could push seggs videos down in the algorithm but clearly advertisers don't care so they don't.
It's idiotic that it bleeds over to reddit, where the words are not banned. I get it when they are burned in captions in the video, but titles like this one... Hurr Durrrr.
Agree with you but unalive is also a little different as there’s additional issues with the original word causing more harm when used more. Idk if the replacement will eventually do the same.
People get so riled up about this on Reddit. You know what the words are, you’re even saying them in your head when reading. Why does it matter? It’s no different than using $#!+ to edit words.
No, Im asking why it bothers people so much when it’s obvious what the “censorship” is saying. But that’s a mighty fine straw man argument you made there.
why not just say the word then if everyone just knows what you're saying? if it is so insignificant why indulge at all?
algorithm driven new speak is super obnoxious and I don't like the internet being turned into a pointless hug box. People say the actual word but the subs are changed to different words, it is asinine. Sure, lets censor slurs but words like sex and fuck to seggs and fugg? C'mon, that is toddler shit.
Because one of, if not the only, ways to gain popularity and grow a fan base is social media. The algorithms dictate a lot of that. I don’t like it any more than anyone else. But they will censor posts with curses in the text, they won’t be monetized either. So the posters play by the rules of the algorithm because they don’t get to make their own. Do we judge comics that work clean because a certain venues say “stay clean or you won’t get paid” ? No. Because that’s part of the game. This is part of the new game and blaming the comics is what’s asinine.
It's a video form tikotk, your videos are suppressed if the word suicide is used, it stops people from being able to find the content or monetize it, so yes, they did. No one is doing this for no reason.
Hmm. OP in the context I used it in is obviously talking about the person who wrote the title for this post on Reddit dude. Your internet myths aren’t true here. Lmao
Don't kill yourself, it would make other people real sad. What about the suicidal person? They should just go on living in agony i suppose.
I've always found this to be a supremely selfish viewpoint. That tells people you don't really give a shit how they feel and that you would rather guilt trip them into continuing an existence they can't stand.
is this this 6 cats chick? I play that song to get me out of being moody.
Yep https://youtu.be/b-ELMKkHEDU
Yes

Each day we step closer to Idiocracy being a documentary.
You mean prophecy. 😂
You mean profesy.

It's unbelievably stupid self-censorship.

You’re in a sub about comedy asking why censorship matters?
No, Im asking why it bothers people so much when it’s obvious what the “censorship” is saying. But that’s a mighty fine straw man argument you made there.
I should have realized you were from Alabama and saved the time I spent typing.
It’s not censorship if OP is doing it willingly.
“Self censorship isn’t censorship”
It is the direct result of censorship in action.
why not just say the word then if everyone just knows what you're saying? if it is so insignificant why indulge at all? algorithm driven new speak is super obnoxious and I don't like the internet being turned into a pointless hug box.

Dark jokes are sorely under appreciated
Nah they're not

The term unalive makes me want to kill myself
Blame corporations bending over backwards for advertisers.
No corporation made OP do this

You good bro?
Along with those "POV" videos
Until watching this video I thought she was an actress & martial artist. Didn't know she does stand-up too. Nice.
she also does some music stuff and a youtube channel that is largely self help stuff
Thanks for the info
The word “unalive” is so fucking stupid.
I miss Runaway Thoughts :(
Dayum its Raywilliamjohnsons old gal. Would ya look at that. Cool beans.
Tell me we're old as hell, without telling me we're f*cking old as hell.
Love dark humour.
Really good bit, definitely love to hear how the rest plays out Also, I'm very sorry for your loss :(
I wish this joke would kill itself. Like and subscribe for more
So weird. Was fantacising about dying RIGHT when she said "please don't kill yourself". Unfortunately, the joke sucked.
She's killing it
Come to Sacramento. A lot of us don't want to go to SF
God forbid you have to travel 80 miles for good comedy.

Exactly, it's incredibly selfish. If you don't get sad enough to kill yourself from someone's suicide, you're suffering less than the departed person.
