I swear all the fucking time, swearing is cool and a great fucking way to enhance the intensity of a point one makes. However, if someone were to call me an asshole or try to offend me with any other swear word whilst having a weak argument, I don't care. In my opinion, it depends on where you use the cuss words.
I found good points between the YouTube comments all the time, even when people swear at each other needlessly. I was referring to the anonymous trolls who offend people when they get mad and state no argument at all.
As for Christopher Hitchens, he is a well educated man and widely known as a fucking awesome debater. It's hard not to give credit to him, that's an amazing clip and statement
I agree, I just hate the "never" pc crowd. If we always go by the PC people then things like South Park and Huckleberry Finn would be banned. I do think some well intended people who don't like bullies or bigots miss the bigger picture long term how "never" could come back and bite them in the ass.
Hitchens also said something to the affect of " I never want to unintentionally offend anyone". Meaning not hurt the feelings of someone who doesn't deserve it. But bruising egos especially of those making absurd claims he would have no problem with.
