Stop sharing needlessly censored posts

[-] essell@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

Some social media (including Lemmy) will now catch certain words and auto remove posts based on filter lists.

Sad, but the only way mods can stay on top of things

[-] Rusty@lemmy.ca 17 points 4 months ago

Can we can ignore the lemmy instances that do that?

[-] essell@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

You certainly can.

[-] ptu@sopuli.xyz 3 points 4 months ago

Lucky whoever posted this was smart enough to circumvene that. I’m sure no one else can figure that out.

[-] essell@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

It's a mix between An evolutionary arms race and wack-a-mole.

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 3 points 4 months ago

Some people have social media filters so they can avoid certain subjects. I suppose we think they are snowflakes and should “Man up” though,

[-] Pnut@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago

I wouldn't say mods are on top of things at all. We might need a different strategy all together after a decade or more of little effect.

Who dies at mutter?

I'm sure there's lots of cases where it could be deadly without good enunciation.

[-] stebo02@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 months ago

well good luck finding another match for ped*phile

[-] ohulancutash@feddit.uk 31 points 4 months ago

America won’t have schools in 20 years. If they did, reports would be authored by Chatbots. The rest of the world will have moved on to a world without USA.

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

History 101 brought to you by pepsi-lay.

[-] PoPoP@lemm.ee 29 points 4 months ago

Implying there will still be schools here in 20 years

[-] Witchfire@lemmy.world 23 points 4 months ago

Or text books that describe Trump as anything other than a god chosen saviour

[-] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

I was gonna say. A non-zero number of states will whitewash the fuck outta this.

Also, this makes me think about what wasn't said, recorded, or thrown out, about any historical figure.

[-] ExtantHuman@lemm.ee 12 points 4 months ago

Oh please, schools barely made it past WW1 in history classes even when I was in school. They do a quick jump to the civil rights movement and then speed run through everything post 70s during that post-test period a few weeks before summer starts and everyone already knows if they've graduated

[-] Witchfire@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

My partner and I are only just learning the details of the War of 1812 now that we're in our 30s. Virtually everyone we've asked agrees that they were never taught much about it in school. It was maybe a page max, and we grew up in NY state.

Now that we're researching it and learning Canada's side of it, it's eye opening as to why we were never taught about it.

[-] Ceedoestrees@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

In Canada we learned all about the war of 1812.

[-] dermanus@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 months ago

Burning down the Whitehouse is a point of pride for Canadians.

[-] ExtantHuman@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

Tbf, I took a semester on Canadian History, and well, there's not a lot there. It's American history-lite. Like one of your big battles had like 30 casualties.

[-] Ceedoestrees@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Quantifying history by how bloody the battles were is the most American thing I've heard in a while.

There were trade wars. The history of the Hudson's Bay Company and North West Trading is bloody as hell. They shaped the country. No one really knows how many people died in their skirmishes. They built forts that still stand today, and they're why a lot of towns/areas are called Fort(name.)

Louis Riel is a fascinating figure, like a tricksy, bloody, charming asshole who literally beheaded a diplomatic envoy. He, himself, was beheaded. The whole history of the Metis people is fascinating.

The Acadians and their connection to the Cajuns (a condensed slang of Acadian. Cadian. Cajian..) is pretty neat. It's a whole other French culture most Canadians don't even know about.

Not to mention all the whitewashed history of indigenous peoples, their histories and cultures. Indigenous leader's push for justice reform, based on their cultures and needs, is changing the way the justice system works in Canada, and influencing the world.

[-] sexy_peach@feddit.org 10 points 4 months ago

Not really they're going to learn the broader thing only

[-] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

They’re going to learn that Dear Trump saved America. Nobody is stopping them and they rewrite history weekly and people eat it up.

[-] DakRalter@thelemmy.club 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

It reminds me of something our former chief clown once did:

https://schoolsweek.co.uk/noticeboard-firm-boss-slides-were-taken-out-of-context-and-arent-pro-boris-propaganda/

Edit: apparently he wasn't behind it, but I can see something like this officially happening if MAGA UK (Farridge) gets in. Except you'll get a load of racism and xenophobia added in too.

Final periods aren't necessary for legibility. Sentences are delimited by punctuation for a reason.

[-] Sidhean@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

"punctuation exists" in a sentence without punctuation. I agree a final period is not necessary for clarity :)

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Context matters. Lemme guess, since I don't lay out the context again, this comment is ironic too, eh?

[-] Sidhean@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Sure, why not?

ironic isnt it

[-] aceshigh@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I wonder if history books will have screen shots of shitter and shitheads social media posts.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

An assumption such a thing will be allowed to be written with the republicrats in power. Maybe in another country.

[-] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 months ago

To think you’d be able to say something negative about Trump in 20 years

[-] LadyButterfly@lazysoci.al 3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Good point! Also I like boobies too

[-] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 4 points 4 months ago

In america? I doubt it. It would be: And then M💀sk called the Pr💀sident a P💀dophile.

[-] Tempus_Fugit@midwest.social 3 points 4 months ago

I truly believe we are nearing the end of the American experiment. Best of luck navigating out of all of this. I wish things were different.

[-] Bouzou@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

The only thing I can hope for is one day, when I describe this to my kids, their reaction is, "What???"

Maybe it'll be grandkids...

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Pedearthphile?

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Fuck censorship.
