I hate the word police, the grammar nazis were better.
I don't think it's so much a "policing" thing as a side effect of other platforms whose algorithms will avoid boosting certain sensitive topics. People do stuff like this to bypass it and then other people see it happening and think that's just what you're supposed to do.
But the grammar nazis were wiping out the sentence Jews and punctuation Roma.
The wild language west were the best days.
