Ferrari isn't a dirty word, just because you don't like it doesn't mean you can censor people with different views.

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 16 points 7 months ago (1 children)

We could censor "visa cash app racing bulls" though

[–] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I really what to censor the S word, no censor the whole KIck Stake. Just call it Sauber for fuck sake.

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 2 points 7 months ago

I've never heard anyone call it anything other than Sauber since Alfa left!

[–] cheddar@programming.dev 14 points 7 months ago

They already censor curse words, I don't understand what seems to be the problem?

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 14 points 7 months ago

it's not even that bad

Given some of the other words Max has said on the radio this is an accurate statement

Even then as Frank Zappa said in his classic Crossfire interview "they're just words". Let's not get so worked up about nothing.

He should just swear in Dutch so people have no idea if he’s cussin’ or not.

Dutch people say “fuck” a lot.

We don’t think it’s such a bad word.

[–] kindenough@kbin.earth 4 points 7 months ago

'Fok die shit' is quite polite.

I know I’m Dutch. Fuck still ain’t a good ol’ Dutch swear word. He should use Kolere and de Tering to evade the ban.

Swap it out for "it's okay to be gay" and see how quickly they welcome fuck back.

[–] mannycalavera@feddit.uk 1 points 7 months ago

Is he upset that he won't be able to call other drivers Mongs?

[–] essteeyou@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

I didn't realize 7 years old was the cut-off for swearing.
