Banning the c-word in the slur filter is an act of racism against Australians (hexbear.net)

I actually agree that it's a completely different word from a cultural standpoint, and I don't find it offensive when an Australian says it most of the time. That said, there is nothing more obnoxious than hearing a reddit-brained American try to drop it to be edgy, thinking they sound worldy. It's a worse version of Americans saying "wanker", though that might actually be more lame.
