Opened the site while pooping and was greeted with

Go back to lemmy.ml you hexbear CCP cocksucker.

Very funny, but i think it would be better to remove taglines that contain offensive rhetoric

The one about rocks from the streamer sexting minors also baffles that it hasn’t been removed.

You could also just censor them

the problem is the ideology not the terminology

The post specifically cites "offensive terms," so maybe your problem is the ideology -- as though the forum isn't coated in "here's some shit a reactionary said" anyway -- but the problem in the thread is explicitly terminology.

The title is the title, and I think the simplest reading, given the title and the author acknowledging that the reactionary drivel is "very funny," is that the "rhetoric" being objected to is specifically the display of the term "cocksucker". OP can correct me if they like, but I really think you're just claiming your own opinion is the opinion.
