people think that some words, including the words kill, suicide, murder, etc make them get hidden in the algorithm

there's also other common ones like sex being s3x or seggs, for the same reason

I don't know if anyone actually knows it those words hurt your discoverability or if it was just a hoax and people follow it because the algorithm is our almighty lord and we must follow its commands or else we will be forsaken by its light.

Your boss would make you work 12 hour days if they were allowed to.

Make no mistake, there is no fundamental difference between capitalism in America and capitalism everywhere else.

The only difference is that thousands of people fought for the labor rights you enjoy today, and if you're not fighting for them today, you can lose them very quickly.

Why would you post this? We're talking about privacy.

edit:

gonna make an actual argument I guess

All you're doing is raising your kids to have trust issues, and to always hide their lives away from you.

Trust between people is always mutual, and if you don't trust them and go full big brother on them, sooner or later they won't trust you either.

I'm not saying that people in past generations were wrong on everything.

The problems arise when there's these extremely common justifications of "well they knew what they were doing" or simply, "it's tradition/how it's always been done", which are huge issues.

A lot of tradition is either originally arbitrary, arising from social contexts that no longer exist, or basically tools of control, and I think that we keep giving tradition too much credit.

They weren't stupid.

Tradition and dogma is historically more of a propagandistic self-justification of any act they wanted to commit, than any actually consistently defined system.

This "consulting the ancient texts" stuff sounds a lot like "They were just silly little guys, they didn't know better!"

Yeah, no they very often were, and their tendencies to be deluded, doctrinaire fools gets passed down to their children.
