I'm American, and I have no problem with cursing or politically incorrect speech in person with a group of friends, coworkers, or even loose acquaintances. I just don't like it on public-facing (or "customer-facing," although that doesn't apply in this case) media. For me, it's not a question of morality, offensiveness, or corrupting children, but rather of perceived professionalism and legitimacy.

the mark of a true HN user - everything is about money and status.

I don't think anyone said anything about money, and "status" is such a vague term that it can be used to describe any concerns.
