karens on stack overflow...

Define "Karen" 😉

How do you accidentally use the word shit in a typed question that can be edited?

@nibor don't you use the word 'shit' in comments sometimes or maybe as variable names..and btw i was referring to all swear words

@nonox Karen is a pejorative slang term for an obnoxious, angry, entitled, and often racist middle-aged white woman who uses her privilege to get her way or police other people’s behaviors.

@devout-coder I may do on private chats, or rants, but not on a stack overflow question or answer, and definitely not on work related text, and if I do, it's done deliberately never accidentally.

You have to know your audience.

@nibor ohh ok bro i had no idea that you guys are so politically correct on devrant...its my first post ever

It’s not about being politically correct.

You should focus on your purpose. If you post on stack overflow it’s because you probably need a solution to a problem or because you have a good answer and you want to get votes.

Being impolite and swearing will set you away from your original purpose.

It is strategy.

@devout-coder Okay, so what privilege did the middle-aged white woman who edited your question abuse of? 🤔
