    I always find it funny how in other countries, there isn’t so much a stigma for kids being exposed to cursing and swearing in something like cartoons. I have always hated how music even has to be censored to appease the—let’s face it—minority (probably religious) who happen to like everything else about the song except for language they deem unworthy. The artist expresses themselves with honesty. If you can’t handle that, tough shit. Listen to a podcast or Kidsbop. FFS

    All we got out of it is that joke, where a character says a bunch of profanities and is being bleeped for 30 seconds. But that’s been used to death already.

    I really dislike the sound they use for censoring. It’s so annoying. Plus, why make it so loud? I think they genuinely do it to make it seem worse and grab your attention.

    Another thing I hate is when the subtitles are censored but not the audio. That’s actually pretty ableist if you think about it. They should match. If the audio is censored, censor the subtitles. If the audio is uncensored, don’t censor the subtitles. It infantilizes people who are hard of hearing as if they can’t handle a swear.
