      I don’t think he did censor it. OP seems to have taken the screenshot from someplace that did the censoring, since you can still see bits of the u.

        Close.

        I found a shitty meme on the internet and posted it here.

        I’ve said it ad nausem - I’m not going to look for uncensored versions of memes I find because I don’t care. If you do, great, go find it. In the meantime I’ll be shitposting till my head explodes. I’ve posted over like 5k shitposts in the 2ish years I’ve been here because shitposting amuses me. Not much more to it than that.

        I doesn’t have to be done by him specifically, it’s just content that by it’s nature lends itself to satirical edits like this.

        The worst part is its some self censoring bullshit, no platform will flag your post for using the word “butt”, I think it’s some new phalanx of outrage warriors censoring themselves because they are religious about causing offense, and shame, and all that pearl clutching bullshit kids do to themselves these days. Swear on me fucking mum, this is not site moderation, it’s the users doing it themselves, willingly, mark my words.

      And it works every time when you and others get all riled up about it. Just like they want you to be. It’s called rage bait.
