Also note that comments that contain certain swear words are automatically deleted when flagged.

And If it fits this description:

> it is offensive, abusive, or hate speech This question contains
> content that a reasonable person would deem inappropriate for
> respectful discourse.

or for comments:

> rude or offensive

Flag them.

Or, if there is just one edit it out.
