They're doing it for me. I thrive off of seeing people get irrational over things entirely inconsequential. It's the ultimate bait, always gets people so f*cking mad in the comments.
Which ones?! Not once in my life have I ever been censored for using profanity on the internet. I've been banned for random death threats and inciting violent insurrection, sure- saying "butt"? Hell no. Shit, I get PMs asking me for more details when I mention my butt.
Well ain't you just the most enlightened 'lil woodchuck in the whole big wide forest! Go on lil' woodchuck, tell them how foolish they're being!
In the main, it's not rage bait. It's an overreaction to automatic content moderation that really does demand censorship of terms like 'suicide' and 'pedophile' or mention of violent topics.
Does this need to be carried out to the commonly seen extreme? No, and of course some people do it for the lulz. Does that mean it's all just ragebait? Very much also no. It's almost entirely people being stupid, and a small number leaning into the irritating meme. Expressing frustration with that isn't a bad thing to do, especially if you ever want it to change, even if it might feed a small handful of offsite trolls.
Okay I know it's ken cheng so there's a real good chance its done satirically but god censoring "butt" here has just fucked me RIGHT off. Such an obnoxious trend.
I found a shitty meme on the internet and posted it here.
I've said it ad nausem - I'm not going to look for uncensored versions of memes I find because I don't care. If you do, great, go find it. In the meantime I'll be shitposting till my head explodes. I've posted over like 5k shitposts in the 2ish years I've been here because shitposting amuses me. Not much more to it than that.
The worst part is its some self censoring bullshit, no platform will flag your post for using the word "butt", I think it's some new phalanx of outrage warriors censoring themselves because they are religious about causing offense, and shame, and all that pearl clutching bullshit kids do to themselves these days. Swear on me fucking mum, this is not site moderation, it's the users doing it themselves, willingly, mark my words.
I haven't been on there for ages and I'm not sure what their site looks like anymore. But I'm pretty sure LI was Ken's stalking ground for onion-eaters in the past.

I don't even know who the centering is even for, since we all know what it says.

Wait what's censored? Is this that UK DNS shit again?

In the original post 'butt' and 'sex' are censored

And it works every time when you and others get all riled up about it. Just like they want you to be. It’s called rage bait.

I don't think he did censor it. OP seems to have taken the screenshot from someplace that did the censoring, since you can still see bits of the

Myself I enjoy shit-downvoting so that's what I do when I see this shit.

Have you considered getting a free Spotify premium subscription?

I doesn't have to be done by him specifically, it's just content that by it's nature lends itself to satirical edits like this.

The linked-in source is uncensored.
Definitely satirical, but possibly based on a real finger.

And then you calling it ragebait to everyone in the comments increases the engagement even more.

Frankly I hate him more than the censoring.

Is this post from LinkedIn?

I just followed him on LinkedIn, all his posts are funny like this one.
