Apparently kids have been saying “unalive” in way more normal contexts too, not just places where you’re trying to avoid bot censors. Like, using it in essays because they think it’s a more formal way of saying it kill, like “dead” vs “deceased”
(There’s certainly a chance this is made up and I’m sounding like the weird chuds who think there are litterboxes in classrooms and if that’s the case whoops)
I genuinely wish there was a way to pressure advertisers to knock that shit off. God I hate that word so much. Please just let people say kill I don’t want to hear unalive anymore it sounds so stupid.
Wait why would there be litter boxes in classrooms? Why would they be allowed cats? Do people think that's how kids are getting
potential trigger i think
'feminized'?the classroom litter box thing was something a school experimented with in case students needed to pee during a school shooter drill. Chud media circulated a story claiming that it was to accommodate "furry" students who identified as a cat and didn't want to use the toilet.
Dang the stuff reactionaries think up that we fight for consistently prove to be way way better than how things actually are.
It's like they're describing a slice of paradise. Y'know those Ben Garrison drawings, that's what I had in mind.
