      Yea because gen z invented the concept of slang 🙄 Don’t even get me started on the dumb shit millennials used to say.

      I get it only in the sense of being annoyed at the constant censorship of dark topics. But I am only annoyed by that because then when a video essay is made about a some horrible crime the narrator has got to say some dumb shit like “sewer slide” in the middle of a morbid and dark video!

    3. Anyone else instantly think of the Grapist from that WKUK sketch, when they start talking about grapes cases??

    4. Blame Youtube and platform that ban these words tbh.

      This shit started because youtube is so sensitive with demonetising content that used no no words, cause apparently when a child learn the word suicide, they will run to the kitchen and slit their throat or something.

      Then these people are so used to hearing creators using these words, it slowly turns into its own slang that people use everywhere.

      Gen Z idea, not fault. It’s the weird guidelines, so big companies can just stick to cheap ai moderation

      This isnt slang so much as avoiding words that get flagged on social media. Still annoying. There are plenty annoying Gen Z slang I’m sure.

    7. Unc really think we use these words. These are just to get past the algorithm. No one actually uses these when talking.

      I love that people are already doing this to the younger generations. This one isnt even their faults. But we act like each generation doesnt create its own slang. Then the older gen acts like its the first time in history its happened. Then add in that this was caused by demonetization from the corpos and we want to pretend its weird. Lol

      I’m a Gen Z and I had no clue what sewer slide was or meant until this very moment. No wonder why my generation catches so much flack.

    11. I’m pretty sure their plan is the same as every other degradation of modern communication…keep doing things the way they want until everyone else gets sick of telling them they’re wrong. We haven’t truly lost unless we start doing it, too.

    13. Sheesh. Gen Z didn’t come up with this. It’s just sofa king stupid to assume it started with Gen Z.

      You do know they use those to avoid having posts censored or removed, right? Some sites absolutely do that and this avoided it.

      Sincerely,

      They had to adapt because they no longer have freedom of speech. If they don’t change how they speak, they go unheard.

      Don’t hate the player, hate the algorithm.

    16. As usual, the people to blame are corporate asshoels obsessed with keeping things clean for advertisers rather than teenagers and young adults

    17. Zschwaihilii_V3 on

      This is so stupid and you can only blame platforms like YouTube and tik tok for this

    18. studentoo925 on

      Its older generations fault for being fucking wussies that are scared of little bad words in their media that boomers are taking to extremes

      I literally don’t comprehend anglospheres pathological phobia of swearing

    19. Blame ad revenue companies. They police what words can be said on platforms and then viewers adopt them as they naturally do in every generation.

    20. jess_the_werefox on

      It’s the old rich fucks who own everything that makes them need to self censor.

    21. ModToEndAllMods on

      I’ve gotten soooo many bans for simply talking like a real human being, it’s fucking nuts

    22. ObeseTsunami on

      Sewer slide is kind of funny though, but only if you use it ironically. But yea, everything else is very dumb.

    23. godlittleangel6666 on

      On the flip side, whining about the next generation using lingo you don’t like is also pretty pathetic.

      I find it annoying sometimes, but so did the previous generation with my generations lingo as well.

    24. FoolishCarbohydrate on

      Blaming Gen Z this is like blaming millennials for participation awards.

      In other words, OP, stop being a dick and maybe look into things instead of pulling a boomer.

    25. Astro-Draftsman on

      I know it’s going to blow peoples minds, but Gen Z will be turning 30 next year, you are referring to Gen Alpha’s and “online influencers”

    26. Caring about how someone chooses to sensor a word seems more childish imo.

      So they don’t wanna say Rape, Suicide, Homeless, whatever.

      It’s not a big deal as a lot of ppl make it out to be.

    27. yeeto_burrito2007 on

      You mean Gen Z, who grew up in the digital age and uses the most popular platforms the most, find ways to bypass different restrictions like having your content hidden or demonetized? No way!

    28. bangbangracer on

      Don’t blame the people for this. Blame the social media platforms. All the platforms suppress anything that uses the real words, so now we have “algospeak”, and algospeak loves to slip out into the real world.

    29. You see the thing is, a lot of people complain about these words but in most cases it’s not like you can say the actual version due to dhitty platform censorship and TOS. If you say something like suicide on some platforms, you’ll get your comment secretly hidden. And for yourubers, they don’t make any money.

    30. OldScratchTim on

      It’s to avoid shit ass ai detection that automatically bans you based on keywords.

    31. I feel like a lot of it comes from tiktok, right? Tiktoks TOS is super strict with those words that people had to make work arounds. I definitely agree it’s ridiculous, but for the most part- blame tiktok lol.
