Every single time someone posts some random Tik Tok or Youtube short style video on Reddit… My blood instantly boils.
I don’t even know how to describe it, everything from the Editing, the stupid a*** click bait thumbnail, their tone… Literally all of it is just diarrhea of the mind 😣
Why is this s**** so popular? And kids are growing up watching this trash for 8 hours a day? The hell does that do to someone’s personality? Their psychological health?
How do ADULTS watch that crap non stop. How are they not embarrassed?
But they DID curse. Did those asterisks magically remove all meaning from those words, or were you still perfectly able to understand their meaning? If it’s the latter, then the asterisks accomplished nothing.
If they truly wanted to avoid cursing, those words wouldn’t be there at all. Self-censoring like they did is what needs to be done on some platforms to still curse, but bypass content filters. That isn’t necessary here, so it’s just performative. If you’re going to curse, just fucking do it.

Yes, we have a lot of wonderful adjectives in English. Swear, and be profane, for fun and profit. If you don’t want to use The Vulgar Tongue, then lean on the lexicon.
The black bar really adds no decency, it’s performative and viewed by many as a form of hypocrisy.
Since this is a textual medium run with adult behavioural standards, the rule that infantilizes profanity with absurd fucking censorship is cringeworthy and likely to be mocked or pilloried.
