I think the main problem here is that people are enjoying the witch hunt too much, and this prevents them from weighting up alternative explanations that aren't as dramatic.

My first assumption on encountering a table field with a standalone "n" would be that it's an abbreviation of "no". So I'm surprised people are assuming so strongly here that this is instead code for a racist word. This is quite a harsh accusation, given the lack of evidence.

It will be quite embarrassing all round if this just turns out to be a run-of-the-mill copyright strike, or similar.

I had a newly-created GitHub account banned when I uploaded a Scrabble word list to it as a Gist. Turns out it included various slur words and their systems picked this up automatically.

Although they didn't immediately specify the reason for the ban, to their credit the GitHub support person did explain what had happened when I appealed and the ban was lifted.

Good point, I agree it's not comparable to what has been alleged in this case.

Come to think of it though, some of the words he's used in the past on the mailing list are probably considered "-ism" type offensive by some people today: "dumb", "retarded", etc.

Hopefully no cancellations incoming for these historical word-mishaps.

What do the double and triple parentheses mean in context of a Stable Diffusion prompt like the one you linked?

e.g. might it apply some weighting to the phrase?

Additionally, I wonder, looking at that prompt, maybe he was banned for beastiality.

If this is about racism, it makes me wonder how equitably such TOS-rules would be applied.

For example, if Linus Torvalds turned out to be a racist or sexist or homosexist or transexist, would his Linux repository (https://github.com/torvalds/linux) be hammered? Would he be removed from the Linux project somehow?
