I still can’t ignore the voluntary censorship.

I mean it still says what it says. This is ridiculous.

People who have made posting on X their career believe that their posts will get throttled by the algorithm and the Elon Bucks will dry up if they use words like kill, rape, shoot, murder, dead, and suicide. It's dumb.

This being said, these words when said out loud will get content on YouTube flagged (which is where the practice started, I believe, and why we now have terms like "unalived himself" added to our vocabulary).
