    The concept of death is not palatable to corpo-fascist advertisers. Death does not often sell products, and so, innocuous memes that are posted to websites need to have advertising-hostile language censored, in order to be seen.

    Would that we all literally murder billionaires, cause there's thousands of millions of us and four hundred of them, but I do take comfort in the thought that this is precisely what keeps Peter Thiel awake at night.

    The original post was evidently not censored.

    Sometimes weird censorship is just the to make you comment. Some people are that hungry for engagement.

    You know what pisses me off? All that censorship of d*ath and r*pe and "unalived himself" isn't to make it safer for people like to remove trigger words or something, it's that the YouTube algorithm would realize their content is adult content otherwise and make it so they can't show it to kids.

    These fucking asshole influencers wanted to get as much money as possible, and wanted to talk about really sensitive topics and ensure they got ad money from all age groups.

    So this whole thing started as a predatory trick

    Notice that Rita said she "would" have a walking stick to help her walk. You see, Rita is an American, and she cannot afford a walking stick.

    It's true! The only way I got my much-needed walking stick/cane is because somebody who actually had insurance to pay for it died, and their family let me take it when I was helping clean out his trailer. It's similar to how I got my wheelchair and shower chair, too; someone with insurance died and their family were decent enough to not just toss it in the dump like most people do. America!!
