One problem - and one that people often forget - is that historically, societies change their position on what's appropriate.

It's also easy to see an automated approach leading to hilarious results with say tweets from African-American rappers.

Finally, maybe we can move past this "might offend someone" stance that offers 0% nuance?

It's a curious argument that says un-nuanced insults should be permitted but pointing them out as such should not.

Or that in the past insults differed therefore we should ignore today's.

Or that hypothetically something hilarious might happen so don't call out trolling harassment.
