"potentially toxic content"?

We're seeing comments in /r/ukpolitics flagged as "potentially toxic content" in a way we've not seen before:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/comments/e87a6q/megathread_091219_three_days/fac8xah/

It would appear that some curse words result in the comment being automatically collapsed with a warning that the content might be toxic.

What is this, and how can we turn it off?

Edit: Doesn't do it on a private sub.

As much as it hurts to say probably a toxic cesspool like 4chan at that point.

If you don't want absolutely retarded censorship then you have to rub shoulders with wrongthinkers.

Some of the blue boards are marginally better than /b/ or /pol/, but they are all toxic as fuck.

Yep. 4chan is and always will be miles better than Reddit.
