Because not everyone is comfortable with swears

Fuck the fucking fuckers. Swearing as much a part of human communication as cadence is.

Puritans can fuck themselves with a pineapple. It’s as ridiculous as finding full stops offensive and insisting the rest of the world bow to them by using double commas or something.

Except no one sees the censored thing and doesn’t think the word itself. If anything the censor is bringing extra attention to it. It’s dumb. If the person posting is scared of the word, they should leave it out. If they’re worried other people might fear it then either they should leave it out or not bother censoring because they see it anyway.

I understand that and I prefer to not swear most of the time as well. But these “I’ll leave out the vowels” edits don’t change the number of swearwords in the sentence.
