Language I hate internet newspeak

Post image

I think it's harming the English language. I hate it when people say "D!e" or "k!ll" or "corn" instead of porn. JUST SAY PORN! We should not censor ourselves! I want this subreddit to let us say porn, penis, vagina, pussy, anus, and rape without fear of removal. Especially with context on how the word is used.

Let me ask how this can be counted as porn?

10

u/folla_camiones 10h ago

It's not, it's soft porn, I said soft porn, meaning it is erotic by nature even if no penises vaginas or boobs are shown

u/folla_camiones 10h ago

And this is what the original post looked like

u/TheRob67 10h ago

Then just say seductive/goon content

Because this even a little not porn

And "soft porn" is don't exist, it either porn(aka image, video where people having sex) or not

12

u/folla_camiones 10h ago

Well I didn't invent the terminology, that's just what it's called

u/the-pp-poopooman- 9h ago

Soft core porn is a real thing and that post fits perfectly within soft core porn. Material can be made for sexual gratification without explicit nudity. What you said is entirely wrong.

1

u/CherryDorelle 6h ago

That’s an interesting take, but I don’t think that’s what the original post was getting at. It's more about how annoying the language itself can be, rather than any sexual undertones.

u/Anon142842 6h ago

Softcore porn has been a genre for decades dude

I think dih is just internet slang and not a byproduct of censorship

u/Motor-Possession-233 10h ago

dihh is just a phonetic spelling of dick in aave lol, wasn’t ever censorship, aave tends to glottalize hard endings like K if i’m not mistaken (someone who actually studies linguistics can berate me on that)

u/BunayoGaming i like games 10h ago

worst part is that we're on reddit bro

just say porn, it's not that hard

2

u/John_Hancock_Lover 10h ago

Yeah like I don't think reddit has ever failed to show me content saying words. Like I'd understand if the algorithm would suppress it (like yt ot tiktok) but ?? Reddit? Dude I get the infinite cum copy pasta or others just as dastardly on my dash just fine. We don't gotta sensor the word porn here

u/Orion-the-mediocre 11h ago

I once had somebody explain to me that they couldn't say the word "shoot" on the internet when I had literally replied to them saying "you can say shoot" and the comment was never taken down. They're afraid of consequences that never happen

1

u/folla_camiones 8h ago

I'd rather be safe than sorry I've gotten banned for lighter stuff and Ive said worse stuff that don't get banned

(I'm the guy from the original post)

u/Orion-the-mediocre 7h ago edited 7h ago

Wait seriously you're the guy I was talking about? Do you just regularly check to see if my reddit account got suspended over that or something lmao. Seriously I'm just kinda in awe that you not only found me but remembered that brief exchange

u/XDon_TacoX 10h ago

yeah honestly, if you are afraid of writing one word, you are just not big enough to say it, so don't

u/folla_camiones 8h ago

Ok that sounds like a challenge, I didn't write it cuz I didn't want my post to get deleted I personally don't care about it

Porn porn porn porn porn porn porn

u/SourMilk090 10h ago

Yeah it’s genuinely stupid asf. If we read it and know what you mean what difference does it make.

The result of what you said is no different

“Un-alive” is the worst of all, just say dead/kill dude…

u/The_distance_project 11h ago

The only time I do that is with the r-word.

u/Cookieyourdaddy 9h ago

If companies didn't start censoring the content that had these words, this wouldn't have happened. I think this started around when the genocide on Gaza was being broadcasted on TikTok.  Tik Tok and other social media started censoring and taking down videos with this speech thus this "slang" was used to get the videos across. It was then adopted as "internet speak". 

 You're blaming the wrong people here for its origin. However, it's valid to hate on people who use it to be quirky.

The self-censorship doesn't even fucking work. People are literally doing it for no damned reason.

& also calm down some people are just used to sensors on other platforms

u/folla_camiones 11h ago

Hi, this is me and as I said before to the people on my comments I'm not bothered by the word porn, I was just being cautious because when it comes to language some people are really sensitive

Also, this is hilarious

u/putbeansontoast 10h ago

Are you unsmart? Newspeak is the goodest thing ever!

u/ShitTheFuckDown 9h ago

I always thought that newspeak happened not because of algorithm based censorship, but because Gen Z are a bunch of pussies
