I'm on lemmy.ml but as I'm French, I was reading this comment and was surprised to see removed instead of the french word for "late".

Is there anything I can do on my end or is it a server setting and I should move to a French one?

It's about cultural context, c*nt is deployed in reference both to men and women in Australia

In the US, too, but the usage is always "you are acting like a woman and being a woman is bad so you are bad"

that's what 'slur' means
