Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is an utter asshat. Not only is he the chosen defender of litigation over unconstitutional laws passed by an equally idiotic legislature, but he’s also the man behind plenty of Texas government action meant to make things worse for plenty of Texas residents.

I'm pretty sure getting very worked up over someone using the word "asshat" is actually more likely to be something a literal child would do than using the word "asshat". Take that for whatever it's worth.

You think it's childish to expect a level of professionalism from the authors of articles I read?

I think it's bizarre to make this big of a deal out of it. It's such a useless hill to die on, and not actually sound logic to assume that a minor use of vulgar language invalidates everything surrounding it.

The fact that you're still going on about this just makes you a curious sociological phenomenon rather than the paragon of virtue that you seem to think you are.

Didn't think I was. I simply didn't read an article and some rando on the internet is calling me a child for not doing so.
