I had a post removed today for using the word “spook” in reference to government agents, a common usage that I see around the site, because it is a racial slur, although ive never seen it used with that intent (not that it matters), and it only gets removed maybe 10% of the time. In order to be consistent and not offend any comrades I would propose adding it to the word filter so its removal will be uniform and not open to mod interpretation.

    I always thought it was more like “celestial”, a term so antiquated it’s easier to ban people who do use it the bad way rather than to filter it.
