Oh absolutely, but I'm sort of sampling from the group on this thread. There's a surprising amount of "just mute it" as if the burden of not hearing slurs should fall on the hearer. Purely as a practical matter, a private company competing in many lucrative and sensitive markets isn't going to tolerate diluting its goodwill by becoming known as the place where hate speech is accepted. One user managed to scare TWO advertisers off "X". That's without even reaching the morality issue.
(Lots of folks also equating profanity with hate speech, which is bizarre. If I were in a PUBG lobby and someone called me a mfer, I would laugh. If they called me a <n-word> <f-word> <k-word>, I would leave and never come back.)
