Except no one sees the censored thing and doesn't think the word itself. If anything the censor is bringing extra attention to it. It's dumb. If the person posting is scared of the word, they should leave it out. If they're worried other people might fear it then either they should leave it out or not bother censoring because they see it anyway.
