        No… I’m giving you my opinion on this whole discussion, which started with someone complaining that “removed” is censored on lemmy.ml.

        Telling that you are bowing out now though.

          Oh sorry, I thought you were trolling me by literally writing “removed”. I just now followed your fediverse link and can see that you wrote “removed”.

          Yes that word is replaced on the server. I would say it’s a bit overkill too, but hey it’s a derogatory word towards women, so I think there are more general words like “fuck”, “shit”, “dick” and “cunt” that can be swapped in to convey the same point.

              inform me then, otherwise I’m just going to propagate whatever specific thing you’re vaguely objecting to

                The words you’ve suggested are more objectionable than the word you’re objecting to.

                If you want to claim a position of supremacy and justice in linguistic expression, you should educate yourself on the words you’re choosing to use.

                I’m not asserting that the word removed is more objectionable than any other ‘curse’ word.

                You’re claiming that.

                  The B word at present targets women specifically. The other words can be used extremely generally and even liberally in good humour over the pond.

                  I’m quite surprised you take the opposite position on this, but I’m happy to learn more.
