Tell HN: Rising Censorship in German Social Media

1 point by Fotzenfritz 12 minutes ago

Words like Fotzenfritz a nickname for the german chancellor is now rigorous deleted from social media and tags in image boards.

Since this week the censorship has dramatically risen. Other catergories have been cleaned up. Like gory but first hand videos, an information source.

A politican has to endure that. If the tone has changed, it is theirs to change the reasons to the better and not censor.

Fotze means Cunt. But Fotzn is also a bavarian dialect which means mouth or shaggy hair in swabian. Fritz is short fort Friedrich. Where it originates from.
