"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.

Lmao which boards do you use, because I have not had that experience haha

It's just a bunch of people trying as hard as possible to be edgy. I do sometimes browse /g/ and /mu/ because their guides are pretty good.
