This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

it still seems problematic to me that the people (not you specifically) change the way they speak to suit an algorithm and not the other way around.

Well I actively hacked at the X-Twitter shadowban algo to prove censorship to the point where my account was not only shadowbanned but shadowblocked. Can't even log in to delete my account anymore. But I suppose that's the opposite of what you're describing.

many people are perfectly alright with using “unalive” and “delete” instead of “kill” or “die” but can’t bring themselves to use trans inclusive language

There's an important difference, censorship forces people to adhere to synthetic rules. It's harder to force people to be inclusive or nice.
