See, to me, the civility of the conversation has to do with the actual meaning of the expression than specific syntax being used. Saying "Donald Trump is lying" and "Donald Trump is peddling bullshit" expresses the same statement. People feel comfort in saying certain words over others, in certain circumstances. Personally, I got far more annoyed back in the day when Glick and playwrite kept tossing around the work "amygdala" to personally insult each other, but I wasn't calling for the word amygdala to be censored.
