- Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

We are censoring conservative now? Or is that a bit of tongue in cheek joke?
Its more of a joke, it implies that being conservative is like being "sh1t" or other such words.
Which doesn't need to be censored either, unless you're using the shittiest app known to mankind.
Indeed, the only reason bad words are censored is to get around autoflags, which is a fucking stupid thing to do to your userbase, particularly because only advertisers, who aren't affected by it, are the only ones that care.
Someone once told me it was often to mitigate trolls searching specific terms for people to pick fights with.
Ah that makes a lot of sense, especially on Twitter. Thank you!
In my friend circles we do refer to the as "cuntservatives", but I'm guessing this person is worried about going viral in the wrong circles from conservatives searching for content with that key term, or maybe they're worried about algorithmic suppression based on key words.
