Censoring swear words on text posts have been around long before TikTok, they just kicked it into overdrive. I really can’t think of a reason why the censored version of memes get spread more than uncensored except to think that there are a dedicated group of people who pick up memes like this and spread the censored version before the uncensored version hits.
It makes some sort of sense for videos. TikTok and YouTube demonetized and suppress videos with swear words in them. And those platforms can make people money. I don’t see why a text post would be censored, I don’t know of many ways to make a lot of money off of reposting memes and even the few I could think of don’t really care if they’re censored.
Americans?
This is a TickTock scourge.
