- Good luck finding the actual list. This redditor apparently compiled one themselves. https://www.reddit.com/r/scrabble/comments/my5tie/the_419_words_erased_from_csw/

Okay, on some of these, they have a point lol.
Also, I got curious and scrolled down to "N", and all I can say is holy holy shit man. I get it. People cherry-picked out some stupid decisions, but it honestly makes a lot of sense now that I can see the list. I also understand why they didn't publish the list...

Canadian slur for Irish Catholics, apparently.

Interesting. I didn't know Canada had their own racial slurs, I figured they imported them from the US and UK.
