    I agree but have to downvote the ridiculous tiktok self-censoring. This isn’t corporate social media, stop with the newspeak

      I agree with your opinion, but I don’t see any of that in the comment above. What specifically are you talking about? I’m guessing “father bad-touch”, but that seems like a perfect euphemism for a father who does bad things to their child but hasn’t been held accountable yet.

        Why not say “sexual abuse”, “paedophilia”, “abuse”, “assault”? “Father bad touch” is almost ironic, like “pew pew” for gun and a grape emoji for rape

          Because those don’t make good nicknames. He’s not calling the act “father bad touch.” He’s saying his name is “father bad touch.”
