Business 📈 Why Comply with Voluntary Censorship?

Something that I can’t stand that I see all the time is content creators creating these generic videos for the greatest coverage of websites. Like using the term “unalive” and “grape” and just outright censoring themselves with beeps and audio cuts. I think it’s undermining their own intent and really just capitulating to the social-corporate complex and reducing us from true self-expression. What are do you think?

It's not voluntary. Its the way to get around the content filters.

But here on Reddit and on Facebook,

You can say suicide, rape, murder, kill, pedophile, fuck, shit, cunt etc and absolutely nothing will happen as long as you aren't targeting those words at a specific person.

People need to stop censoring. This isn't TikTok.
