The artist spoke about this on Reddit. Social media outlets automatically remove content with rape and ban the artists. She said she just can’t be bothered with the hassle so even though she dislikes doing it, she started self-censoring to comply.
As someone who has been browsing the web since the very beginning, young peoples’ obsession with only using the same five websites and nothing else is so fucking bizarre to me. Don’t like a particular platform’s censorship? Use a different fucking platform! We’ve never had more options!
i mean i don’t like it either but I’m glad the artist is able to spread their work so I can see it, if they insisted on taking a stand and stubbornly kept making art that was immediately censored I don’t think this post would exist and that’s worse than the current situation
If it’s really that way, then it really sucks. Tho I cannot blame the artist, they gotta get this thing across somehow. I just wished the artist would at least create an alternate uncensored version or something…

I agree as someone who held onto reddit for far too long. But if you’re trying to reach a wide audience Lemmy doesn’t really work for that.
network effect
you can say things like Die, or killed, which is ridiculous.
I thought because of the same reason the world “unalived” became a thing
I remember (from ages aggo) a list of things fb censored and which are ok.
In short anything slightly too sexual was off limits (that’s probably not the case anymore by now).
And anything violent, horrific, grotesque,… was just fine and dandy.
Just to illustrate what a fucked up version of reality they try to cultivate there.
“I don’t mind, I just do as I’m told, that’s how you know the content is fresh af”

You can spread any message you like, as long as it is censored in compliance with the ministry of truth.

I mean, yeah. When you’re on a platform you have to abide by that platform’s rules if you want to be able to keep posting on that platform.
That’s what you choose to take away?
That’s what you choose to criticise?
Here’s a good advice for you: shut up. Stop posting. Stop thinking that your thoughts are valuable. They’re the opposite.
They’re defending rape victims. Who are you to tell them to shut up?
