Porn, this meme used to say porn! Why do we keep self censoring?

[–] ClownStatue@piefed.social 48 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I agree with the sentiment, but porn is maybe too restrictive. Phones basically became the new TV.

Good point, overall short form video apps must trounce porn sites

The social media algorithms that give us fake internet points have conditioned us to comply.

We’re on Lemmy though. Even if it were censored you could simply post it to an instance that won’t censor.

That’s why the original commentor was complaining about it. And I’m agreeing with them.

It used to be porn but that was back when phone screens were 16:9. Now they are 18:9 and thats for vertical scrolling of social media feeds.

While porn is definitely part of it, you can also watch Futurama on your phone.

That’s essentially porn for your soul

I have never met anyone that didn't like porn. Even your most prudish Christians like porn. Why do you think they fight so hard to ban it, they like it and are ashamed for liking it.
