Context ALWAYS MATTERS. It's the only thing that takes language from noises to communication. Words are worthless without context. You can get mad, offended, whatever, but when you say that context is worthless you are leaving the realm of rationality. Straight up. Context is EVERYTHING.

But who creates contexts?

Can any mods make sense of why cunt is a perfectly fine thing to say but these words aren't? I can't believe we all have to tiptoe around this. We all know what the words are, we all know what they mean, and maybe they've been used to hurt you. But this isn't square one for stopping these words from being used.

Did you listen to the bombcast ep where the c-word incident occured? When Vinny dropped it, the bombcrew reacted with silence. The giant bomb community on the other hand ... Language is a living thing. Words are born, words die (or better: Meanings are born and die). The speakers decide what the wordstock of their language comprises. You may know the meanings of words, but you can make them obsolete by just not using them. Think of it as a small step towards a more empathetic world for future generations.

Will GiantBomb become the BioWare of CBSi? Nah.
