IMO the erotic Japanese art video I posted wasn't authentic NSFW, as it was art. In my world the horrible comments made by Tyson are several degrees of magnitude beyond erotic classical art. I provide the NSFW less to protect office drones and more to protect parents and their children. Considering Tyson expresses a desire to eat children in this video, I suspect most parents would agree it is not family friendly content.
Pretty sure they'd censor his language, but I haven't had a TV signal in about 10 years, so I guess I wouldn't know. I take my kids to the museum to look at naked Greek statues, but keep them away from animals like Tyson.
In my experience doing office work offensive and even illegal porn was the norm, and the owner seemed determined to gross us out with objectionable content. In my experience as parent however I have found "NSFW" distinctions for foul language, violence and obscenity to be helpful, even while defending nude or even erotic historical art from being censored.
Reminds me of all the fig leaves painted over Biblical nudes by latter-day puritans.
I wouldn't say that youtube is my measuring stick on such things, but according to wikipedia NSFW includes nudity, profanity and pornography. My opinion is that nudity is not harmful to kids and ought to be accepted in the workplace as well. Profanity on the other hand all too often gets a free ride these days, one among many signs of cultural decline.
I am reminded of a German friend whose baseball cap said "fuCK You" in bold print. It was meant to advertise the band CKY, amongst other things.
I wouldn't know about TV, you make it sound even worse than I remember.
People who use "cunts" a lot (aussies for instance) tend to use it as a form of inclusion, sort of like "nigga" or "bros" or whathaveyou. As far as what society thinks, I should think wikipedia gives a fairer representation of what NSFW means than youtube, where pirated videos vie for attention with videos of illegal beatings and not just porn, but illegal sex acts as well.
I am all for freedom of expression, and I rarely label things "NSFW." Maybe you assume good faith on the part of a convicted rapist and former mugger, but as a person who has followed his media presence closer than I ever followed his boxing career, I take the rapist at his word.
I am not sure I despise him, more I see him for what he is and his comments amuse me. With all the bullshit about "rape culture" slung around these days, this guy is an actual convicted rapist attending various media events and talk shows. The irony is impressive.
I submitted both of these to SU, and afaik neither is listed as NSFW. I suppose if I was to be consistent I should have tagged my Bill Burr video as NSFW as well, as it contains language. As you know from SU, I try to give people a heads up when I think the content is objectionable.
