I watch a lot of the Hasan Abi industrial complex to keep up on the news. There's more and more of these channels skip clipping over words like "killed", "bomb", "war", and even "gun". One of the clips I saw earlier kept the word "missile" too... That's just a bomb with propellant!! I don't get why they keep doing this, it's really annoying. It just feels like yuppy bullshit, I have yet to encounter someone who gets triggered by these words, online or irl.

Thanks for reading my rant, goodnight.

    Yeah and the real answer to this is to ban or severely limit automated ad targeting

    Ban companies from using automated language detection to determine advertising.

    Honestly I’d argue for “Ban any sort of automated ad targeting full stop,” the options are a human looks at a video and assigns a specific ad to play for that video, or the whole website gets a selection of ads that are assigned randomly.
