Why is the "that word" being censored across lemmy? (ani.social)

Not sure if this is the right place, but I've seen this for the 3rd removed now.

Literally couldn't use the word in the title ... got a red pop-up that said "slur".

It's the 3rd word (singular) in the famous newspaper from New York ....

UPDATE: seems to be an issue with ani.social, thanks for all the feedback!

No idea and not sure if it's right. They could be attempting to match something across whitespace or line breaks and gotten greedy. Or maybe it is just a string match and not regex and they pasted the wrong string, but that still feels weird.
