Listening to a really engaging podcast right now about the Brothers Home in South Korea which killed and abused thousands of kids and young adults in the 80s and 90s. (Trying to link but the player is crapping out; it’s Rotten Mango)

So many words are swapped, presumably to avoid demonetization, at a new level (SA’ed, CA, now “self-exit” instead of “unalive” to replace suicide because that’s been forbidden to say) that I feel my brain rotting. What’s the point? It’s just extra work to process new slang, and it’s not like it’s a trigger warning or something because your brain can still process the sentence.

If this is meant to protect kids then put an age warning on it, but we’re adults (or click a button that says we’re aware of explicit content), can’t we just act like adults? Am I missing something?
