Watched a great video by Amy Shira Teitel about the self censorship of language on Platforms like YouTube. A great watch and puts in words my own opinions on the matter. That it downplays the gravity of real situations such as true crime cases and world events like World War II
So. Who’s to blame? Well it’s the advertisers. We’re now in a situation whereas far as sensitive topics go broadcast TV is less restrictive than YouTube, at least as far as language goes.
I don’t like that people have taken to calling it Algo-Speak. It implies it’s a new version of language and not what it actually is. Corporate cowardice.
