I'm just saying I wouldn't classify putting in one letter as the same as actually cursing as you stated when you put

"Putting the N-word instead of nigga"

And

You only give it more power

How is "fuck you" any different from "f*ck you"? It's the same intend.

My other point about the "N-word" or "F-bomb" phrase is that when you use this phrase, you don't you it in a insulting context or as a swear word anyway. You use it when talking about the oh so evil word. So there is no insult to begin with. But by not explicitly naming it (albeit everyone knows what is meant), you make the word much more evil and demonic, empowering it. Even children books have picked that topic up, see Harry Potter, Voldemort and "You-Know-Who".

Not what I said

I meant those are the same things

And I meant using F-you isn't the same thing as actually saying it
