If you're outside of Hexbear and you slur it gets replaced by removed when viewed from Hexbear.

If you're inside of Hexbear and you slur they take you outside and shoot you in the face.

Actually they shoot you in the removed

Luckily I'm safe because I have information that'll lead to the arrest of removed

Is there a slur list somewhere? I'm not really worried about triggering it, more curious what is and isn't included.

You want to read the slur list out of sheer curiosity.

I want to read the slur list so I can achieve peak-Freedom of Speech™ warrior status.

We are not the same.

Edit:

I found the slur list and it's just one long page of removed repeated over and over again.

racism factory instructions advise changing your slur filter every 10 to 15 thousand miles

Hexbear has one so we literally can't call people slurs, so when people claim that we have (which has happened before) it's very easy to show that they're lying because if we did it would just change it to "you stupid removed"

Like kindergarteners thinking that calling someone dumb or stinky is the same level of badness as fuck

If you haven't found it yet, you're doing great!

I love when it shows up in the middle of some other word and it's like "oh. I guess i learned something today.

it depends on your instance whether it's turned on or not. but yes, lemmy has a slur filter. hexbear has it turned on so our posts get slurs turned into removed and posts with slurs from other instances get turned into removed on our side.

I wonder if they added bitch to it?

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

brb gonna go make a thread where we brute force reverse engineer the slur filter list by yelling every slur we can think of in every language. I'll go first - n'wah

[–] Mindfury@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

this is the end of you, s'wit

appears not

chen weihua is safe for now

[–] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

Chen Weihua isn't safe from the slur filter. The slur filter is safe from Chen Weihua.

Let me test it: Nigeria, Unless, Diamond hoe, Pakistan, Japan, ALL CAPS, (I'll add more later if I think of them)

Hexbear uses a slur filter and it's shown me how many people from other instances casually use the r-word in 2023 internet-delenda-est
