The irony in complaining about censorship while censoring someone for 'having a new account'. Cheers for the warm welcome! The 'register' page is there for a reason...
It's a word game. Bitch is a perfectly valid 5 letter word.
In order for a word to truly have meaning, it needs to be applied to a discoursal context.
If a word appears in a game, it's just a combination of 5 letters which follow typical spelling patterns.
Actually taking the time to blacklist words is downright pathetic, and is an attitude which is a bit of a cancer on society; being offended by individual words regardless of context, as opposed to taking the time to understand the context/nuance/arguments. The NYT should aim to inform, educate and inspire. Reinforcing such lazy attitudes doesn't achieve this.
