TomSka Hates Corporate Internet

"omg tom ur gonna get suspended!!" shut the entire fuck up!! i hate this corporately sanitised internet!!! live free, die hard The weirdest thing about places that aren't Tumblr is when people aren't used to hyperviolent responses. Like, If I reply "I’ll skin you alive" to someone on Twitter, they get quite upset. My sweet summer children, do not live your lives based on what coca cola is comfortable placing their ads next to. Say cunt. Say fuck. I beg you. This is our house, not theirs. If we must perish, let it be on two feet; not grovelling on the floor like animals.

Thomas “TomSka” Ridgewell posts an aggressively humorous rant about censorship, advertisers, and sanitized social media. The embedded joke contrasts Tumblr’s tolerance for hyperviolent language with Twitter’s outrage, while the second post mocks people who censor themselves to keep brands comfortable. It is used as an absurd, defiant reaction to corporate moderation and advertiser-friendly internet culture.
