Ohh that’s what was meant. I thought it was about some document before reading your comment.

People saying pdf file instead of pedophile because of internet brain rot. What a cool thing to discuss serious topics and call them stupid fucking names in the least serious way possible.

I really hate the culture of self censorship people are developing. Fuck the corporate clean Internet.

I’m not advocating for being uncivilized but we should name the things we are discussing by their names.

I hate how people call it “cheese pizza” for “CP/child porn.”

Like, I get that YouTube is fucking bullshit about censoring things that don’t immediately bring them as revenue, but it’s still gross imo.

You’re not defending anyone by calling it something entirely unrelated aside from the first letter of each word.

Its very prevalent in Commie-China-Places. Pooh-Bear to mean XiPIGpIng. 8964 for TiannamenSquare Massacre. Taiwan #1 Country. All those are censored behind the Great Firewall of China.

Pretty sure that cheese pizza originated in IT because it was so common to see, and ignore, CP on exec’s computers when you had to go fix them. It was used to share the info without getting busted talking about it.

It’s because on many social media, the word pedo / pedofile wakes up the censor bots while PDF / PDF file does not. Yet.

It’s like how people censor the word Microsoft as M$. Like why, say the name

That isn’t a censor, it is a statement and an abbreviation… I suppose PDF could be an abbreviation as well with pedo being one letter longer. PDF file on the other hand is just censor circumventing or their brand of humor.
