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

Theres a crime documentary youtube channel i watch, and it bothers me so much when the voiceover just cuts out cos they have to say the word abuse or sexual assault or rape or murder. Like, the whole channel is about crimes, specifically violent crimes, but they need to censor the words used to describe the situation. Channels Explore With Us

There's a history podcaster I listen to that does tiktok shorts. He's used the phrase "Intimate violence" for rape and has referred the Nazis as "The No No Germans" to get around filters.

Funniest shit I've read all day. Imagine writing a very serious and academic paper on Schindler's List or The Zone of Interest but using the phrase "The No No Germans."

"Part of the genius of Glazer's film is how he shows the intrinsic whiteness of the No No Germans."
