Policy for Q&A pertaining to (potentially) objectionable material
Of course users of Codidact are expected not to direct offensive language at each other in general. But there are many coherent, potentially valuable questions that could be asked about language that is in some way potentially offensive: whether profane, vulgar, impolite (perhaps contextually), politically charged, etc.
How should such questions be approached here? In particular, are there any specific expectations to hide or censor certain kinds of content?
In particular, what if the OP is mistaken about the assessment of what is likely to offend (or otherwise cause a problem, e.g. NSFW language)?

There should be a distinction between using offensive language, and asking about offensive language. The former is clearly not cool, but the latter can be OK, even useful.
