I'm thinkin "eight year-old white girl, out on the street this time of night, middle of the ghetto, bunch of monsters, hangin' around with quantum physics books?!" She's about to start some shit
Thank you for censoring the word gun, can't have such naughty words on the internet now can we?
It's so fucking stupid.
YouTube algorithm is openly propagandizing children into far right ideologies, but god forbid someone posts a tweet with the word "gun" in it.
Be nice, americans are on the internet and they are very sensible to nono words
YOU TAKE THAT BACK. How DARE you accuse us of being sensible!
!microblogmemes@lemmy.world would be a better place to post this kind of thing.
Not everyone on here is going to agree with me, but I'm getting tired of seeing so many communities become the same thing. Just a 'dump it there,' community. (That's what !justpost@lemmy.world is good for BTW.) This 'meme' community, !funny@sh.itjust.works and !microblogmemes@lemmy.world are all starting to look about the same in content. I don't always want to read Microblog memes and sometimes I don't want to read standard memes.
Why is the word gun partially hidden??
Because then people ask why gun is partially hidden. This is followed by somebody explaining why gun was partially hidden and then somebody else who comments on how the whole exchange is just making this tactic more effective.
It's all engagement which often leads to more reach and visibility for the post.
You're just making the tactic more effective by continuing to engage with it like this.
Stop it, right now.
Or what, you'll use a ~~gun~~ on me? Now you may be asking yourself...

To be fair, 'memes' is inherently a generic community. If you don't like that, then you should sub to more specific comms and block ones whose scope is too generic. You can't answer all posts to generic comms like 'videos' by saying "Well, there's this more specific comm". The threadiverse isn't a directory structure where you should necessarily filter down to more specific subdirectories where possible.
I agree that LCD genericization is a huge problem on sites like Lemmy and Reddit. It's seriously troubling how it eventually becomes one big mass without meticulous moderation. But the problem you're describing is baked into the comm in this case.
I mean I think most people would agree that a meme template is necessary for something to be a meme. Microblog "memes" that are just a funny post on Twitter or Mastodon are fundamentally a different thing.
You are right. I don’t want to read X posts on my brainrot meme feed.
You'd be surprised at the amount of people here on Lemmy who insist that Twitter screenshots fully classify as memes and that they belong here... or maybe it was a different memes comm on another instance when I involved myself in a massive fight about it.
The problem is that there are no meme communities on Lemmy of comparable size that do not allow screenshots of witty social media posts/comments.
I wouldn't even count these as memes, but we already had that discussion. Some people think everything is a meme and that everything can be posted here, some disagree. The problem is there's no space for those who disagree. And I've even seen it that people who don't want these screenshots go and create their own community (or rather subreddit to be specific) but when it got sizeable enough, too many people don't care about why that sub was founded, and the sm screenshots were everywhere again.
There are however numerous large enough communities that allow or even specialize in that kind of content, so is it really asked too.much to move it to those communities?
Just want to say that I agree completely with you
Why the fuck is the word "gun" censored?
Seriously, stop doing that shit, stop changing how normal people talk. The only ONLY reason we do this is to please the tech bro billionaires who might stop investing somewhere if there are too many naughty words.
Fuck. That. Shit.
These ones with the shittily drawn white line that hide literally nothing I suspect are by the Lemming posting them and they are doing it specifically because of reactions like yours.
They could have at least changed it to the widely accepted "pew pew" .
As John Lennon found out, a man with both is even more powerful.

You need the right book they are suited to specific scenarios? For this a book on hostage negotiation or deescalation would be needed.
But you also need to have already read it
Just need "War and Peace, nobody gets through War and Peace"
"Well I liked the War part. I couldn't get through all the boring peace shit tho."

A big enough book can stop bullets.
"Surrender ... or I'll start reading Dianetics at you!"
That's such a dumb move. Oh, wait.
