I have never met anyone who thinks words should be censored in print. Maybe this is specific to the US?

Definitely not a US-only thing. Every time there's an article on BBC about someone getting in trouble for saying something offensive they often don't even provide a quote of what was said.

A review of Chinese mobile games found 180,000 different censored words.

The idea that print shouldn’t be censored is more of a progressive western idea, than a non-US idea.
