Redacted is an incredibly vile word when flung as an insult , its completely unacceptable to address another person this way *. Insulting people by calling them redacted is probably the fasted way to bojo and no one will miss you if you get 86'd for that .
Redacted can be said / written here on Daily Kos if it's in reference to , reporting of , racist behavior or thoughts of other people .
Redacted can be written out and does not need to be redacted . Redacted does not need to be written with letters replaced by spaces (re....ed) . Redacted does not need to have quote marks around it . I'd advise the use of spaces and quote marks as pleasant and safe but not mandatory . You may not say it can never be written , you may not say its hide on sight . You may not hide rate all instances you come across where you find someone has written redacted . You as a trusted user must look closely at the use of redacted to see if the use falls into the hide rateable zone or not .
People who often write comments containing redacted are not necessarily racists themselves , please don't jump to conclusions .
Redacted is such that people have very strong thoughts and opinions about it and its use .
Unless you have a very very good reason to write redacted , I'd advise avoiding doing so .
* I think we all know the exception to this , so no need to rewrite it , ok .
This diary is the results from the last redacted diary .
