May I ask what "Chinese censors" have to do with anything? It's completely feasible to me that this is an all-American problem, imposed on us for the sake of brand friendliness; same as it's been for other instances of censorship like network censors on television or the YouTube adpocalypse; and carried over into our language now more generally to end up in a place like lemmy. It's perfectly explained by the attitudes and surface-level friendliness of "polite society" in western culture. I don't see the point in using a foreign adversary to explain it away, or pretending that censorship is anything different when it's done by a government vs private entities that shouldn't have that kind of unchecked authority over what we're allowed to communicate in the first place. I also have no reason to believe China gives any fucks about the vulgarity of English speakers on the English internet. It just seems weird to me to bring them up here.

I think it's more the sex and select topics with Chinese censors, but I'm not sure Deep Seek will cuss in English or not.
