The impression i got from the article is you can say "this game is the worst zero stars" and you're fine but "this game is for degenerate f******" is a no.

Yea, because one has at least a chance of being a genuine opinion and the other is some hate-crime bullshit. Is that confusing?

Nope! It's what I'd hope. I guess I was a bit confused why there was an article, since I thought erasing hate speech was normal practice. When I was half awake this morning reading it, I wondered if I missed something.

For “some reason” people are more emboldened than ever to come right and be full-on garbage. And they’re shocked when maybe using targetted language, targetted at margainlized groups no less, draws special attention.
