| I recently read an entertainment "news" article that repeatedly used un-alive. As in "they wanted to un-alive him". Is this a new thing? |
| TikTok would block/ban/shadow ban language involving murder and suicide, which caused new speech patterns to develop. It’s fascinating to watch as a linguistics major. |
| Thanks, it was odd language for me considering the article was rating horror films. |

Honestly, I hate this language, and I say that as someone who has struggled with the urge. Why not write k*ll or sui***e?
I don't find this new trend really enlightened or woke or helpful. |
Read the comments above yours. It's not about being "woke", it's because people don't want their content to get banned. |
