Calling something "the shit" is still unnecessarily using profanity. It's impolite. It's not a surprise it would be flagged as offensive.

It's not impolite, it's just very informal.

Strong disagree from me. I don't think it's impolite at all. I find your attitude in favor of what I would consider cultural erasure offensive.

But these are all subjective opinions – I could just as easily say that it _is_ a surprise to me that it's flagged as offensive, or that unnecessarily using profanity isn't toxic or impolite. And I feel like that's where this post is gesturing toward – not a judgment on what should or should not be considered toxic, but just a reminder to be intentional when writing definitions and sourcing training data.

Maybe it is to a quickly shrinking part of the population, but it's basically common speak to anyone in my life under the age of 45.

Chiming in to say you are dearly mistaken, you turkey-squid uncle buntler.

I, on the other hand, am a fucking amazing shit OG bitch.

But yeah this stuff is absolutely dangerous, opinions like these are destroying culture. It won't be long until the threads these automatic tools are moderating, WONT BE WORTH HAVING.

'Nuff said.

It's not necessary to post at all. Necessity isn't the criterion.
