That’s literally fascist propaganda. Fasces is Latin for a bundle of sticks and that was the image of strength that Italian fascists were trying to evoke.
Oh, so there is an automated censoring system in place. I thought people were saying removed en lieu of re-tard on Lemmy on whichever instance I was visiting. Kind of like how people use unalive.
I don’t think it’s Lemmy. I think it’s per-instance. Lemmy.world is not a great or open place. They’re very close to Reddit, with way too much control over Lemmy where it’s almost synonymous. Take this as a warning if you’re creating a community or new account to spread things out.
It’s also the name of a meat dish in the UK. Sort of like meatballs in gravy. Although it’s rarely used in the singular. Wonder if the link get censored https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faggot_(food)
Calling a black object “black” = Does not offend.
Calling your car’s late ignition timing “retarded” = Does not offend.
Calling your dog a “bitch” = Does not offend.
Calling your rooster a “cock” = does not offend.
Calling a tied bundle of sticks for burning a “removed” = Does not offend.
Just follow your friendly dictionary and you’ll be fine.
Also: Hi mods. You’re probably here because of your word filter.
Edit: Something replaced “f-a-g-g-o-t” with “removed” automatically. I’m going to leave it because it’s hilarious that bundled sticks are forbidden.
He’s right. Individually, we are weak like a single twig.

Ah, I see. Thanks!
Mods need to turn that shit off. Computers should never tell a human what to say.
Its basically never used in a legitimate way unless youre a british smoker or something, and even then you are likely aware of the slur.
Kindling or whatever the other word im blanking on is would likely be more appropriate
“Hey can you grab me that F____?” Would mentally auto correct to “Hey, can you grab me that, F_____?” In my brain
Yeah, in the UK you might bum a fag. Which, now that I write it out, can mean something very different.

Mmm, now I want to have some faggots for dinner.

Did it happen instantly, or was it a redacted action?
I noticed within seconds of posting it.
