“Christians today have become the most vitriolic tribe,” said Ritchson, who himself identifies as a follower of Jesus. “It is so antithetical to what Jesus was calling us to be and to do.”

On the flip side, I’ve heard what seems like a reasonable theory that some people with these triggers will filter things by keyword. Granted, I’m not sure if Lemmy or any of its clients have that kind of functionality, but let’s say something does. By replacing a letter with a character or similar workaround (to which I echo the question of if that really has a significant effect when the meaning is still obvious) you’re bypassing that filter someone may have set.
This is entirely true. Censoring words you type like this is actively working against the main way people who are trying to avoid such triggers can take care of themselves.
You can set up a filter to block stuff containing a sensitive word, but your filter will fail against the countless ways there are to censor the word with asterisks or whatever. The censorship is well-meaning but misguided.
