I also should note I've only been on here a week so I can't say if it was less absolutist in the past.

I am also aware that there's alot of stuff the US protects that would be illegal in places like Europe.

i'm not sure if imgur shadowbans comments based on a word filter or link filter, or if i've been shadowbanned from imgur

because a few comment responses i left that contained links to evidence of tim's favorite obama related topic seem to not appear on the actual comment chains, only in my own profile's comment list 🤔

and they're all at 1 point instead of the usual -10, so i know they aren't showing up for other people either

You know, it's been over a month since any of ian miles Cheong's tweets have shown up on my twitter feed

People outside of us are raging because they got banned in r6 siege for type the answer to "what is cartman's superhero name in southpark" in chat in the game

And they dont even know what the word means

But they got banned due to toxic behavior and was yelling expletitive on stream

i don't watch southpark so i don't even know the answer

Also someone name has the word "chink" in it, guy gets banned for typing in his name

@Tohob Here's a hint. It's Southpark, so it's offensive. Cartman dresses as a Raccoon.

>working as intended

uhhh is it coon man?

Yea xD

excellent

And guy gets banned for toxoc behavior

Because coon is a bad word

i remember an mmo i played once that had such an excessive chat filter

Same for chink when someones name is chink

that half the chat was asterisks

I actually didn't know 'coon meant anything other than "Raccoon" until everyone started getting so hypersensitive about it.

I remember when the word penetration was censored in DDO

So you couldn't talk about spell pen in actual DnD or other DnD products

I think spoon was on the list too

i'm from the US and all i know about it is that it's apparently offensive. idk why and i've never really heard anyone use it

It's offensive *in* the US tho

Lol

It's an older racial slur

These past few years have taught me so much about how people will find anything and everything to be an insult. Like bananas.

That now just gets used on black conservatives for the most part

`coolest monkey in the jungle`

I still don't entirely get it.

>H&M gets trashed in south africa

Every time that phrase is uttered, an H&M mysteriously gets destroyed

Nobody did it tho

No arrests to make here

>assume you're being called a monkey
>make literal ape noises while you trash a store

Yeah, so the weird thing is that literally everyone on this planet is evolved from Monkeys. So like ???

i like how a bunch of south african H&M branch employees are jobless because people got offended over a shirt design made by a northern european ad agency that doesn't understand the nuances of what is mildly offensive in the US

🤔
