I could see someone posting a screen grab where another used a slur and censoring it accordingly.
Yeah, I guess there are two ways to view these words...
In one you see the use of the word as a slur as a bad act, in the other you see the word as damaging in itself, like having to watch nsfl gore or something.
If you feel the word itself is damaging to see, censoring it makes sense. If you just care about people not using slurs, seeing the word itself is fine.
