Goatse, like Michelangelo's David, should be an exception to normal rules of censorship, due to its status as part of our shared cultural heritage.

The legal framework known as "we all had to see it so you have to too"
I'm terrified to see an AI rendering of what The David, 2 Girls, 1 Cup would look like.
Hard to compare a gaping rectum with a artistic statue of a nude man.
Every work of art is the expression of its time I guess...
!unpopularopinion is that way (edit: I still don't know how to link communities, whee)
In the alternative, you really need to come up with some better things to think about in the shower
You just need to specify which instance it's on: !unpopularopinion@lemmy.world
Most apps or web ui should also have an autofill option.
Ah, thank you! Mbin has a variety of formatting options but nothing to help with community links, it seems.
Lemmy try... pun intended... !unpopularopinion@lemmy.world
Hurrah, I'll remember that. It'd be a lot more intuitive to pick up on if the commat and instance name weren't hidden from the formatted result.
Counterpoint: what if older societies already put in place censorship laws that were so successful, they effectively scrubbed any cultural memory of similar "works"?
Perhaps we should write our rules based on what we want in the future rather than what our ancestors did?
How has no one mentioned “tubgirl” lol.
I think most of us blocked it out
For a damn good reason, along with the lemon party.
Like many parts of history we wish it hadn't happened, but here we are. Those who forget their history are doomed to repeat it.
Please, no. 😱
What you call "normal rules of censorship" only applies to countries under Islamic laws and the USA...
When I’m playing civilization vi and I found a religion, I always call it “goatseism” in his honor.
…Much though we wish it weren’t.
Huh... Who would have thought a man spreading his asshole open large enough to drive a bus into it would be culturally relevant? I mean, besides @BreakDecks, that is.
Hell, we could straight-up consider it a medical anatomy exhibit.
If you need something nice to look at after your web search, go to lemonparty.org /s
Oh god why did you dig up these repressed memories.
Your going to making me politically motivated enough to join the lemon party
You mean like how David had his dick smashed off?
who?
Is goatse.cx still up? I would check but growing up with the internet as it was, I've seen enough Goatse in my lifetime that I really don't need to see it again.
