EA censors "white man" and "DLC" in Battlefield V

Jesus christ, people. Put down your pitchforks and think for a second. Just because you have your agenda all planned out doesn't mean you have to throw common sense out the window. You don't have to wedge EVERYTHING into your preconceptions.

Anyone willing to be even mildly objective can see that there is a very good possibility that we're looking at a filter error.

Also, the OP should have EA's response so that people can judge for themselves with all available information at their disposal.

Based on what? 

The fact that DLC is censored, and free DLC is not, isn't proof of anything.  Neither of us know exactly how their censoring software works.  

There are some ways of censoring words that could lead to odd words being censored like that.  

 

EA said today that DLC is not supposed to be censored.  Do you really think they would purposefully censor DLC and hope no one would find out?  

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that a racist black guy calling somebody a "white n***a" (asterisks removed) in the chat isn't magically gonna go uncensored just because he put the word "white" in front of it, censoring software doesn't work like that unless you specifically program it not to censor words with certain queries involved.

Also, "white man" being censored while "black man" or "Asian man" isn't and "DLC" being censored while "free DLC" isn't given EA's track record of DLC and past statements involving this game would be waaaaaaaaay too much of a coincidence. You're really gonna take them at their word after their "sense of pride and accomplishment" spiel?
