This has nothing to do with governments or censorship. Governments don't care about swearing. They don't care about meandering, low quality messages. They like them. Look at the "big platforms" that are heavily censored. There is no lack of swearing. There is a lot of low quality off-topic trolling. You aren't doing anything anti-censorship by swearing every second word or posting messages without carefully thinking them through. You're just annoying others on the list. You're lowering the quality of the discussion - both with what you say and how you say it. You make broad suggestions about things without giving them any real thought and you present ideas in this meandering way, often full of profanity. The governments of this world are, if anything, in favour of people swearing every second word. They strongly oppose any attempts to create a child-safe internet or subset of the internet away from porn, groomers and foul language. They sometimes seem to want us all to be mindless consumers incapable of serious inquiry. >I suppose my goal was and is to lower their sensitivity, so far, from >personal >experience, I found out that putting the blade straight into the fire for a >prolonged period of time can really harden it. >What I perhaps failed to realize is that not all blades are equal. >Yes, I don't want to be censored on here, and I don't want sensitive >people in >here, but I do want people, so goal should be to somehow change people from >sensitive to insensitive, tolerant. I don't think anyone is shocked by your messages. They just come off as crass. Imagine going to a conference in real life and one of the speakers goes on a 10 min rant filled with swearing and irrelevant material halfway through his talk. Some people might be offended. Most would be thinking "why am I wasting my time on this idiot?". People aren't being "sensitive". They are just adults with time-waster detectors. When every second word is F this and F that, it suggests that you lack the vocabulary and grammar to express yourself properly. That might not always be true, but it is true enough of the time that most people in this world will make that presumption until it has been disproven. >I got a feeling like you and I are somehow connected, like you are me in past >life or something.. perhaps we are all just 1 split consciousness. This sort of stuff adds nothing and just makes you seem weird. >I feel, myself, like I'm at my limit, been for many many months.. due to my >never-ending eye problem.. >Sensitive or not, computers seemed to heal me mentally. Perhaps you should take a bit of a break from the internet. Go outside, breathe the winter/summer air, etc. Kind regards, Miles.
