    An ad about what? Is this real? Creators of true crime documentaries can’t say “rape” or “murder” for fear of being demonetized but they show ads like this?

      I have had rapey-AI ads in youtube before. I even took a screenshot.

        That doesn’t seem like a photo that would break any rules. It’s suggestive, but nothing worse than that.

          That isn’t the point, though. The absurdity here is that content creators have to censor their language to such an absurd degree so as not to offend advertisers, but then the platform itself can just turn around and post borderline soft-core porn. It’s just more hypocrisy from those “Think of the Children!” pearl-clutchers.

            You seem to believe that the platform is intentionally posting soft-core porn.

              You seem to be trying to stir up some sort of argument. It’s an obvious example of double standards. I don’t know what else to tell you.

                How so? Do advertisers not get suspended or banned if they post soft-core porn?

      I’m willing to bet this isn’t actually what the ad was about
