I am not surprised at the list of words in this chart coming from Reddit, I have seen a lot of the insults myself not only on Reddit but also on other social media platforms but it would seem that Reddit tends to be a little more lenient, especially if it is in a NSFW sub-reddit.

I haven't been insulted on Reddit, but I do often see others being insulted. I see a few of these insults often when I'm browsing the site. Though not everyone on Reddit is rude.

Thick skin and a WDGAS attitude works well in the world today, both online and IRL.

Yes, I think that it's only on NSFW sub-reddit that you can freely used those works and it wouldn't get you into trouble. I've been in a TV shows sub and used mentioned a show's name that have sex in it and the post was removed. I think I received a warning for it.

You are absolutely correct. I used to wonder why reddit should let such happen on their platform, but then I remember that it is a social media platform and bullies are always on these platforms seeking for who to talk to anyhow.

The first time I joined Reddit, I had a pretty bad experience. I had a row with a user. I heard a lot of English word insults for the first time. I left Reddit only to return after many years, but I am not active.

This is weird because I never had that chance without having my account suspended for the slightest use of insulting words. Maybe the sub that you were using them didn't have active moderators because if they did, the person and even your account might be suspended.
