Really? Bastard is getting censored now?

And shite censoring at that. You can still see the damn word.

No. All I see is "baard", and I'm confused. What is a "rat baard"?

I remember thinking the age of censorship was over with the death of television. Naive me didn't realize it was advertisers who were the driving force behind that censorship. Not sure why it's being censored here, other than censorship being so pervasive that people feel that's just what they're supposed to do.

Yep, I said that word on Reddit and got banned. They explicitly said I was banned because of the word 'bastard' when I use it to refer to a guy who cheated on his wife

Well, technically speaking, he's a cheater, not a bastard.

Well I can see why! It's hard to know the man's parentage just from that amount of information. Perhaps his parents were married at the time of birth.

Any potential child born from the affair would be a bastard, though, unless the man divorced his wife to remarry.
