But ya can’t see the word bitch (or a bunch of other swears)
good. not everyone wants to deal with misogyny.
How will I ever decide whether or not to make this tradeoff?????
Oh no, not the tyranny of the regular expression filtering of a few bigoted words! This is fascism!
Bitch isn’t a bigoted word lawl
It's misogynistic, pretty clear cut bigotry.
Not if you’re calling something cool “bitchin’”!
I only see removed but this comment makes me think of female dogs
Yerp, that’s exactly correct hahaha
Other instances don’t remove words
The root word is baked in misogyny, that doesn't change that dynamic.
