Yes, I'm aware I can curse on the internet - it's not my first day here. I use the exact words I mean to use, and I'm more a fan of the precision F-strike than indiscriminately carpet-bombing the place with "fucks". Stop word-policing me (and others).

Edited to add alt text.

Yeah, this went over about as well as expected. And the irony and hypocrisy of the free speech absolutists coming out of the woodwork to tell us all what we can and can't say is not lost on me.

Oh sure people can self censor and thats fine. It doesnt properly hide the word though. If you said out loud that someone is an "N-word" you have and the people listening have completed that word in their head and could still call you racist for using it, even though you didnt say the word your intentions to are a problem. The concept of using a censored version of a word only works to appease the person saying it.

If you want to remove the curse words just use different words entirely instead of censoring them.

Also, people who curse are more honest than thise that dont.
