I wish people stopped censoring online.

Dude, it's not censorship, it's shortening the two German parties CDU and CSU.

Then it would be C[DS]U

So just a fancy way of typing CDU/CSU...

Is this normal to refer to these two like that?

I think we can all agree that the word "cunt" spoken with the uniquely angry German inflection is too vulgar even for the internet.

Also no.
