    Yep! It only gets censored in two cases:

    1. You are on an instance that censors words like this (e.g. lemmy.ml)

    2. The user who wrote the comment is on an instance that censors this word (which actually replaces it in the comment), everyone sees it censored then

      What about the edge case where someone actually says removed? Like the actual verb, to remove, but italicized and in the past tense. Someone could then infer incorrectly that you’re saying a slur word instead of the verb to take away.
