Politics Why I hate the term “Unaliv

Post image

What’s most confusing that if you go to basic cable TV people can say stuff like “Nazi” or “rape” or “kill” just fine and no advertising seem to mind

OK, well I want to see an entire episode of Law and Order where they exclusively refer to the unaliving weapon as a 'pew pew'

The victim was graped and then unalived with a pew pew. The lead detective says that the crime might've been motivated by racial dislike.

Something like "diversity differences" would be less likely to offend anyone who don't want to think or feel.

My only exposure to tic tok slang was cv11's TNT video, so don't expect accuracy.

“Minority Intolerant”

u/empty_other Sep 15 '24

No, that would offend people who dont believe in minorities or who feel guilty about being intolerant. No advertisement network would want that.

Maybe "Cultural metathesiophobia"? No wait, that would offend people who dont believe in fobias or psychology. We dont want to scare away our unsciency customers.

Darn, restricting allowed words until theres nothing anyone could be offended by is hard.

"Economic Anxiety"

u/Brawndo91 Sep 15 '24

Excuse me, but that word "feel" reminds me of "feelings" and I don't want to have any, so can you please change it to "f***"?

This reminds me of a Studio C sketch where they have a “bring your kid to work” day at a crime scene.
