Looking at it strictly from your perspective, it doesn’t make sense does it? But, keep in mind that there are a lot of people who share the same view (regardless of how correct or wrong they may be to you). And when those people gather together and start validating each other, yes your brain releases more dopamine. And when someone is addicted to a substance (even dopamine), we will try to seek out those same triggers so we can continue to get that hit.
The problem with addiction is that our biology builds a tolerance to it, so we need more of said substance to get the same high as before. So we need to escalate the things we do. And when we don’t get those hits, our physiology causes us to experience pain. And what do you do when you’re in pain? Hopefully you stop doing whatever it is that causes you pain. It’s a vicious cycle; a feedback loop if you will.
Now I have a question for you: did you actually type out Censored or did you say a “bad” word?
oh man. im so glad to be on my instance. Heck I turned off bluring not safe for work because peoples sensibilities on what is nsfw is by and larger way below mine. Or above. Not sure which way makes sense but anyway im less sensitive and prefer to not have stuff changed on my view.
That’s disappointing. While I don’t personally condone the use of that word, we’re all adults here and should be able to just downvote or rebut or whatever without censorship. 🤷♂️
That is the beauty of being able do choose to use an instance that fits your needs. If you really care about that censorship enough, you can just make a new account somewhere other than Lemmy World.

Oh wow. That looks like your instance or your app that did that. I’m on Lemmy.zip using Voyager
