it would be cool if websites let you be an adult on them. the advertisers and payment processors need everything to be Family Friendly though and their definitions of family and friendly are absolutely fucked. but since they’re in charge of the Internet now, no one is allowed to be an adult. tiktokers say things like “unalive” and “seggs” because they know death and sex are too adult for online. online is for idiot babies only now because they’re easier to market to

    Yes advertisers like chase and Walmart and visa are truly the most left you can be.

      I’m not calling those who craft and insist on this kind of language left, I am calling the people who accept and use it supposedly part of the left (in vague terms).

      You are making my point. My point is that conservativism is charlatans and we becomes their stooges when we play according to their terms, including on the field of language.

        I definitely don’t know what your point is, still. Genuinely no offense, but English is clearly not your first language and I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.
