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.

    See my response down below. I dont police, I’m just saying there is a logical inconsistency here. You want to swear, then do. You dont like it, then don’t. Using censored swears accomplishes neither.

      It’s. Not. Censorship. I really can’t be any clearer than that. Censorship is when your intended words or ideas are suppressed. No matter how many downvotes OP receives, it changes nothing. All words are made up, and if you think they should use different made-up words, then yes you fucking are word-policing.

        Why are you putting words into my mouth? I never said or even suggested there is a government or so at play here suppressing ideas.

        There is just a logical inconsistency in the whole concept, and also in OPs reasoning, which for arguments sake i take offense with. In truth i, again, dont don’t really give a shit how he writes, or you for that matter.
