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...
Wherever this was originally shared\posted, someone circumvented the site's detector bot for blocked words by paint-brushing over the word(s)... but still readable to humans.
It's an annoying new trend.
Why donât they just post somewhere that wonât block it then? Surely the point of this is that children would be safe there, so this just screws everybody.
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.
Then add in all the many Scots accents and dialects, Scots Gaelic, Welsh and Welsh-accented English. Hardly anyone speaks RP (received pronunciation, ie posh) any more. Even the royals have toned it down. The late queen was really plummy back in the 50s.

Interesting, her accent has really changed a lot to become more regular sounding. I would guess in the old recording she was actively putting on the ridiculous accent, because the royals are all about projecting a posh image. Like i bet she did a lot of elocution training to purposely teach her how to sound that way
Her whole family and their aristocratic social circle spoke like that, she grew up speaking like that. She's not putting it on, that's who she was. The growing pressure for royalty to be less aloof forced a gradual move to more "normal" speech from about the 70s. At the same time, broadcasters were starting to hire people with (gasp) regional accents. Previously anyone aspiring to be a newsreader etc had to speak RP, "the queen's English".
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.
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.
those people dont complaint, they are just virtue signaling: They show they belong to the site by repeating what everybody say on lemmy (a way to reiterate lemmy values, some of them are good, some are bad, and most are repeated without even knowing how good or bad they are, just to show you belong) . It has no meaning except for themselves.

Well "per area" is vastly different purely from a geographical standpoint. Much bigger country and the UK is a much more densely populated place.
Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk · 4 pts · 285d
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].
