The 'outlawing' of words is used to shape the views of the populace going forward, and it's really effective.

It's good for you to not give a shit what some asshole says, but it's still important for it to clearly not be okay for the asshole to say it.

I don't know exactly what sociological/psychological group think is at play revolving around this, but watching the changes in the last 30 years, the needle seems to have moved a lot.
