ETA for removed’s sake, even this post had to be censored down to go through. It took about 15 attempts.

A few times recently I’ve had posts refuse to go through with great big ‘you’ve been blocked!’ banners.

It seems to be very sensitive to mentions of being mean to people, not advocacy, just mentioning the existence of certain topics, and it seems to be way too hair-triggered.

I just now tried to post about the ethics of meat consumption, and why people see certain aspects as more troubling than others. Certainly nothing explicit or provocative, just the difference in perception between harvesting meat and deliberate unkindess - as abstract concepts.

I refuse to do the stupid zoomer thing of cens*ring words with numbers and punctuation, and frankly I shouldn’t have to.

I’m not sure how you’re meant to be able to have a sane conversation about ethics or politics if you’re not allowed to mention people being mean. God knows what would happen if someone tried to report actions perpetrated in an akka-akka-kablooey-competition zone.

Could someone maybe take a look at the settings, because jesus christ.
