"Idiots" is a vast group of Earth's population, but using that word is fine because every idiot thinks he's not an idiot.
On the other hand, f@ggot knows that the word refers to him as well; if you use that word, every imbecile within the associated group feels abused and may cut his veins because of the painful cognitive dissonance.
lol, but y
But after all I still can't get why it's necessary to censor words in the internet (it's commonly known that the insults in internet are empty and nothing to care about really) while you can receive the same insults at street or at market or at wherever place in RL if some people had a bad day. Blocking swears is a waste of time from my pov since we're small community and have much more important things to do.
Also people are getting sanctions for swears anywhay be it f-bomb as it is or **** - then what is the big difference between **** and actual swearing? Will I be sanctioned for swearing if **** is what I actually typed, not some censored swear?
