What? Is this a positive step by large companies?
The cynic in me thinks they'll push to legislate for this so Indies cannot compete and they make more money from MTX hell.

You have missed the point completely. UK isn't good but even given how bad you think it is, doesn't tolerate the slurs mentioned (the whole point of the post). I speak about it because I live here and I'm shocked people even debating that these words are fine.
What miraculous country are you from that is so free from racism?
In a nutshell, I've said these words not cool here and your contribution is effectively "your racist country is so bad. Don't talk". Not the most helpful contribution ever. Who hurt you?
UK did some dark shit in the past. No debate.
Brexit is a whole different topic. Norway isn't part of the EU, does that mean they are racist? You can hopefully see how weak that point was. Part of the debate was about sovereignty and economic decline. Whether valid, your implication that because 17m voted for that, they are all racist, is wholly wrong, shallow and child like black and white thinking. Some are, yes. I do know folks from right or left year voted for it who don't have a racist bone in their body. You have to be able to handle nuanced debates though.
You've completely changed the topic from slurs and what isn't acceptable to a whole piece on racism and I think every country can do an awful lot more to improve, UK included. The point was, slurs in there that some are finding acceptable in other countries isn't here. You'd get banned from football games for them or fired from jobs.
If you just want to go down the "UK all bad!" You can carry on the whatabouttery/kitchen sinking on your own to make yourself feel better to protect your country and feed that nationalist indignation you got going on. If you want to go back to discussing slurs and acceptability, happy to welcome you back to the debate.
Guessing you don't live in the UK. Accepted we have many issues we need to address and further progress to make, but certain slurs ans language are unacceptable and can rightly land you in hot water. Meanwhile in America and some other places, folk are like "lol, n word".
If you're on xitter, most users are toxic and toxicity is incentivised because engagement is money.
If prioritising your mental health, taking a break from ones like X and Facebook help.
Blocking negative content and hope it becomes wholesome can be exhausting and fruitless as it will reccomend it, regardless.
I personally found regularly scrubbing contacts that are not meaningful until you can take breaks more and more helps. Eventually, I refused to allow it my time or to cost my mental health so no longer use it. For me, the cost was greater than the benefit.
That's a very expensive Nazi bar.
Here in the uk , the P word is probably the most offensive word you could use against a person of Indian descent. Up there with the n word. removed (f word) is also probably the most offensive slur you can use in reference to gay people. It's correct that they banned them.
Guessing you're from America where being offensive is cool. Historically people used to justify the n word based on the origins rather than the highly offensive connotations.
UK ain't woke, just has some acceptance that people from different backgrounds have some value rather than pandering to grumpy white folk who care about nothing but themselves and how inconvenient it is to possibly consider other words.
Best to fork just in case? Ideally to Codeberg.
Same. They were one of the coolest and nicest people I know. I just want them to be happy.
Some Fillipino's I've talked to have commented that drug problems in their area disappeared but used to be pretty horrible.
I'm not one to defend crimes against human's, but one cannot discount the level of criminality and the impact it was already having on people's lives. Whether the tactics were fair or decent is one thing, but another is, did it work? Did it solve a serious problem the country was grappling with? You only have to look at Mexico to realise that if you don't deal with these things, the level of murder and suffering often skyrockets.

I mean, it's the daily mail. You got a good and accurate source? Lol
The Daily Racist sucks.
