Why is bathroom censored?

[–] ordnance_qf_17_pounder@reddthat.com 60 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Extreme paranoia about being pushed down in the algorithm because of puritanical social media platforms not liking certain words would be my guess. Bathroom = toilet = penis/vagina/ass = demotion in the algorithm.

I can't prove it but that's my theory. Either way, if a platform punishes you for saying innocent words, and you are obsessed with maximising the reach of your shitposts, then the platform is shit and you are an idiot.

I don't think it's a theory, I'm pretty sure that YouTube and Instagram would demonitize or shadow ban you if you use some of these words.

Probably to drive engagement from people like you asking why bathroom is censored

[–] HonoraryMancunian@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I would bet my r*ght nut that this is the real reason

[–] atomicorange@lemmy.world 16 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Why would you censor “raght” it’s not even a word?

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Depends on what accent you're reading with. That boy ain't raght I tell ya hwat.

[–] osanna@lemmy.vg 4 points 2 days ago

Is that one dill or bread and butter pickled I want to know what I'm betting on

[–] systemglitch@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

Insanity is the only acceptable answer.

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I can't believe you just typed it out like that

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Like wtf that is our word

[–] Zozano@aussie.zone 3 points 2 days ago

Can I say bathr**m if its the lyrics in a song I like?

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

Because op is a slave to the algorithm.

[–] devaly@ani.social 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oh no Jimmy, now everyone in the bus started masturbating. Please stop saying these naughty words

[–] Bhaelfur@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

No! Arrrrroooooooommmmm!

[–] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Bro you can't just type problematic shit like that. You'll get banned from the Internet. Spell it like this bathr00m to get around filters.

"Bathroom" is a political thing in the US.
