Does anybody else feel like it's time to stop complaining about dumb censorship? Everybody here agrees and the people who should see it never will. It's so pointless. Right now the top four comments here are useless complaints. Maybe I should start a new trend and complain about the complaints. People can then complain about that, until it's complaints all the way down.

Censoring "shoot" now? Wtf. If you need to censor such inoffensive words to post something to a platform, you should get off that platform.
Fuck I hate sanitised internet.
And to celebrate the fediverse: fuck fuck shit fuck ass ayyyy macarena π

Fuck!
How dare you say the M word! No one should ever say that, you sick bastard!!



I'm definitely boring and my porn preferences are weird but sadly this does not mean corporations and governments aren't monitoring all my shit π«©
So tired of censorship. It makes things like this not even funny.
I agree wholeheartedly, but this wasn't funny even without censorship.

What got removed?
Is this karaoke? Are we singing that Blink 182 song?
Itβs a famous comedy skit. https://youtu.be/kyBH5oNQOS0
The full show, Live at Carnagy Hall is great and I honestly recommend most of Carlinβs standup.
Oh no, I hope this post won't get demonetized
If people can't stay off the more restrictive, corporate-friendly platforms, they should at least avoid dumping the censored shit here as well. Going to start blocking individual users...
these little self censors that don't cover shit or make a fucking difference ruin any potential comedy. who the hell thinks this is necessary or beneficial
This is just a worse version of a Family Guy cutaway gag of the same context. And censored shittily. Fuck this post.
Ameri~~cans~~ p~~ost~~ing so~~cial~~ med~~ia~~
Ameripingsomed?
Ameri pigs on meds
God I wish the Ameri pigs were on meds but they're taking ketamine because antidepressants are bad for you or something
Ketameds, yum!

Is it just Americans? My understanding that most mainstream platforms were full of this bullshit.
The most impressive thing I have learned about Americans from TV and movies is that they have sex with all their underwear on, so that when they get out of bed they don't accidentally glimpse each other's private parts.
It's funny how some people's impression of a UK accent is how the royals sound, when in reality the UK has the most diverse accents of any english speaking country i know of
I feel like it's just recognized more than the myriad of accents across America. There are so many accents just in a single city, let alone across the whole country. For example, you might hear about 3 or 4 different accents in San Francisco, and then hear 5 or 6 totally different ones in Los Angeles.
I don't think US accents are nearly as diverse per area as the UK, but i guess that's just my impression, I've never read a study on it or anything
Well "per area" is vastly different purely from a geographical standpoint. Much bigger country and the UK is a much more densely populated place.
The US may be big, but the UK had more centuries of existence before the unifying effect of national TV and radio.
This wikipedia article boldly asserts that "The UK has the most local accents of any English-speaking country" but the claim is [citation needed].
Source: I just feel like itβs true right now.

Pffft. I have a different accent to my wife. And my dog.
As an american, i can confirm.
Coming from just a comedic point of view mentioning school shootings when talking about the US is bottom of the barrel humor, not because it's too offensive it's just hack and overdone at this point.
Just get a new joke
The jokes will stop when the school shootings stop.
Until then:

Even the UK foppish sex joke is pretty old. I remember a Dana Carvey special from 1995 making the same joke about the infamous Hugh Grant blowjob.
It's also a disproportionate response. "British people talk funny" gets "American school children are regularly shot at school, lol tragedy".
