    Censoring is stupid and people self-censoring just makes me think the user is a child who’s scared of being caught saying the naughty words or is just copying what TV does as if they also have to adhere to broadcasting regulations.

    A lot of people online don’t seem to understand the difference between referencing a word and invoking it. For example, we’re in a 4chan community, you should really expect there to be very offensive language in the posts themselves, but we’re adults here and we can look at the word “retarded” without thinking that it’s OK to use as a slur ourselves.
