Crazy that we need to censor these words but words like shooting, shooter, guns, killed, raped, etc. are in every day news headlines. Hell, our president proudly defends himself saying "grab them by the pussy" and that just got him more support from women-hating dumbasses. Our president cusses online in the US, but WE need to watch ourselves? What a joke of a planet. Always has been. You would think these platforms owned by greedy, lame ass billionaires wouldn't care about these things. I mean they have fascists and neo Nazis welcomed onto their platform but oh don't say the F word!
i wish this was still funny and didnt remind me how much these people would like for us to stop existing, and how actively they are pursuing that agenda
"This is a tragedy! We all loved them and will miss them!How could we have prevented this?" Says every person after the event who saw the signs and did nothing.
I don't understand why anyone cares about the censorship. You all understood exactly what it was meant to say, and it helps it get seen on algorithmic sites. Why bother getting upset about it? Was it so important to see those 2 letters?

Fuck self censorship to appease advertisers on platforms that don't even have advertisers

It seems the artist defaults to uploading to Reddit, Tumblr, Instagram and BlueSky, and had this to say:
That said, here's an unofficial uncensored version for freedom purposes (modified by myself)

I didn’t censor this, the artist did because it was on a platform that does have advertisers.

I read it as “sheeting”. I assume it’s the latest YouTuber prank or something.

The masked letters could be mistaken for b**bies and we must protect our fellow US lemmings from adult content at all costs.

The brown noise has been weaponized. There is no defending against it.

Remember - censoring words also makes something harder to search for in the future, allowing future propagandists to skew their own metrics.

Can we stop censoring the English dictionary please? Shooting. It’s called shooting.

Also shows his level of concern about someone he knows who could become a shooter if not helped/stopped.
