Should we sugarcoat language?

I think it depends on some context.

I think some censorship around children is useful.

The words you mentioned i believe is just a part of sloppy policing of tiktok videos. They want to avoid videos that incite violence so use algorithms that punish or ban videos with certain words.

Theres racial words that are treated with way too much importance and offense in my opinion.
Specifically in the sense when youre not using these words to offend someone and youre literally just describing the word, its frowned upon to say the word youre describing. The obvuous one being the N word but theres others.

Although its a complicated topic, attitudes towards words move like an unstoppable tide.

Theres such a unanimous attitude towards some words, even if a person isnt individually offended by a word, they will still be on guard about someone whos willing to use some of these forbidden words.

Similar to the american prison code of a fight has to happen if youre called a bitch, even if someone isnt personally that offended by the word, in that culture it supposedly means a lot more in those circumstances.
