Filters like that are so trivial to bypass on a higher level too. Look at how many gamer or forum tags are “Lovecraft’s Cat”. And good luck catching those cases on a non-manual basis.

I once happened across a Github where all the repos were subtle little bits of anti-Semitic cant relating to the Holocaust. More than subverting them, they also often function as dog-whistles for fellow travelers.
(For those not getting the specific one used above, Lovecraft had a black cat and a common name for black cats at the time combined a now nigh-unprintable racial slur for black people with the word 'man'.)

Github has a reporting feature!
