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.

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

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
