    1. Can’t wait for 2040 when we’ll have to say ‘not breathing enjoyers’ instead 💀

      Honestly, it’s wild how accurate this feels. We’re inventing new words just to avoid moderation bots.

    3. Oh noo, he abandoned the role of a person capable of interacting with the world around him, F o7

    4. It’s so stupid I don’t know how children are meant to report what happens to them anymore if they’re being subconsciously taught rape, sexual assault, murder and suicide are naughty words

    5. i miss pre-coppa youtube, if i ever decide to start posting videos i will make sure to swear consistently

      Jfc I’m so sick of these posts from the grammar police, who CARES??? Just type the fucking word you wanna type

    7. Its funny because if you bring up 1984 you get called a nutcase but this is literally what happens in the book, new words are invented to replace non-PC words, Fuck this self censorship bullshit

      It’s almost like we are going back to archaic english but much less intelligent obviously

    9. You sound old. Do you also complain about the portion size being too big at restaurants? How you could have split a meal with someone else?

    10. Remember the time, not so long ago, when people were inventing pronouns and genders and other woke words every other week? Words like “chest-feeder” or “birthing person”?

      THAT was Newspeak.

      Not being allowed to call for the death of people is just a common sense law.

    11. By 2030 we’ll be saying ‘word-not-word’ just to survive the algorithm. The future of language is pure chaos

      If you had been sweatier you could have escaped.

      Rdit: Wait. Thats the wrong tense. You can still fix this.

      But…
      UNALIVE IS NEWSPEAK!

      While not directly used in 1984 (Iirc), the word “unalive” can exist in newspeak as it is the word “alive” and the prefix for bad “un”.
      So we’re using newspeak to evade censoring bots now huh?
      If Orwell was alive today, he’d probably kill himself.
      Adding to this already huge mess the current situation of the UK (socialist government using radical measures to “keep the country safe” by massively censoring internet), we might be getting a 1984 by 2084.

      In 2025 we eliminated the homeless population. They were briefly considered unhoused, but now, unsheltered.

    15. Literally no one gives a shit about you writing suicide, certain algorithms suppress it. If you care that much, protest to those social media sites.

    16. Y’know, in Ultimate Spider-Man (show) Deadpool really predicted the whole Unalive thing.
