I don't know anyone who would be disgusted by swearing, as long as it's not excessive and doesn't involve insults.
As for the forum rules and asterisks: you can writeModerated: OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE in the message
, but everyone will still understand what's being said and read it as intended. What's the point then?
Swearing in a public place is disgusting. I think it's appropriate in a very small circle, and even then, you can find words that are just as powerful to convey your thought.
If there are such words, then what makes swearing something special and disgusting?

to be honest, I don't want to argue about economics, politics, or the Moscow-regions situation, because neither I nor anyone else in this thread sees or knows the real situation, so it's just empty talk.
