Look... This crap of banning words is stupid. When does it stop. Freedom of speech means”freedom of speech.” What I say in my house,or heard in a private conversion is protected. I hate when people use the F-word, but I don’t get all worked up about it. When they try to ban a word , it makes the user that much more powerful. You give the word power. That’s why calling a white man a Cracker mean nothing to us. We refuse to give the user any power over us.

Language of the Third Reich by Victor Klemperer

In the book Klemperer describes how the nazis manipulated the language as a means of manipulating German society to be more accepting of Nazi goals.
