    Slur? The article seems to say it’s just the word “fuck”

    Are people still shocked by stupid shit like profanity? I was expecting racial slurs or something actually bad…

      The word in question is not “fuck”. It’s “faggоt”.

      [And before someone complains: the above is an instance of metalinguistic usage of a word. It’s morally OK as you’re using the word to refer to itself, instead of using the word to convey any discourse that would target a marginalised group.]

        Oooohhhhhhhhh. I completely forgot about that “f-word” and appreciate you not beating around the bush like the article did.
