It’s pretty silly that using them in a discussion about slurs would upset enough people that it’s better not to.
If you actually use them as slurs, censoring doesn’t really make you a better person. Telling someone “you’re a fucking r-word” isn’t really all that much nicer than writing out the full thing…
Are the n-word and r-word swears? I’m all for censoring those.
Slurs are different than swears and I think they should be censored.
Agreed. I was thinking more on it and realized the same when reading another comment.

I could see someone posting a screen grab where another used a slur and censoring it accordingly.
