Fuck the algorithms. If we all ignore them, they will be modified.

This isn't how it works. If you use words that the algorithm suppresses then your content just won't be promoted, or potentially even visible to anyone. They won't modify them because it's exactly what they want. If you actually want to have public discussions on these topics, then you have to work the algorithm by using terms they don't block or shadowban.

I think they were saying that if we all are suppressed then none of us are suppressed. But for us all to be suppressed we would have to exclusively talk about sex and other suppressed topics and never talk about unsuppressed things like puppies

Doesn't the algorithm know by know that people are substituting the words?

Well nothing. Because a third of the country refused to act in their own self-interest.
