I have had this warning from time to time before. It has been a while, but for that while, several of my blog posts were flagged. I had somewhat of an idea that it had to do with my descriptions of encounters I've had with my stripper girlfriends, but I wasn't quite sure. To be free of the warning, I re-did some of the blog posts to edit out the graphic (or what I think were the graphic) words, then submitted them to Blogger again for a review. I think a couple of my blog posts were cleared and allowed to publish freely. I don't know about the rest of them. And honestly, there have been more than several where I thought I would circle back to them to see what was "wrong" with them, but then I just forgot.
So I was reviewing my WMNSS, and then I looked at the warning note. I don't know whether the action taken by Blogger changed or if I just didn't read it close enough, but when I saw the warning icon, I thought my offending blog post was de-published, and I had to clean up the language so I could get it posted. But now that I read the community note, yesterday's blog post was published, but put behind a warning interstitial webpage that it contains "sensitive content." Well, shoot, if that's the action Blogger is taking, hell, I'm not gonna change a damn thing. I don't think that's censorship, and besides, why would I be worried about the number of pageviews I have? I don't have any!
Now I think all those flagged blog posts in the past weren't taken down but just put behind warnings. Why then did I go out of my way to clean up the language in some of those blog posts when I slaved over the precise words I wanted to use? Because of my oversight, I think I censored myself, and that's just dumb of me.
