Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

Nah I just think this type of censorship is weak minded and kowtowing to authoritarian actors. If you want to avoid the word "suicide" there are better ways to do it instead of saying weak minded bullshit like "unalived."
Edit to elaborate my reasoning for why this is weak minded- you are allowing big corporations to influence your own private thoughts and way of viewing the world on a fundamental level when you do this shit outside of their walled gardens without even realizing that this is what is happening. TikTok wants you to brainlessly talk like a child so no no words don't show up next to McDonald's ads on their platform and you don't think critically about the constant, infinite garden hose of slop it is feeding you. You can think for yourself and use adult euphemisms like "self harm" or even censoring the word suicide like "s*****e" but saying infantile bullshit like "unalive" means you have opened your mind wide open to corporate propaganda to make you dumber.
JFC guy's here opening up and you're being a complete and total asswipe. He won't say it so I will: fuck you.
