You remind me of one scene in the movie, The Big Lebowski.

The narrator of the story is played by Sam Elliott, who appears on screen, sitting at the bar in a bowling alley, next to the protagonist in the movie, The Dude, played by Jeff Bridges.

He asks The Dude, "Do you have to use so many cuss words?"

To which The Dude responds, "What the f*ck are you talking about?"

Nothing worse than somebody telling everybody else how they should act or speak.

I was in the military, not Special Ops, but I've heard much worse language coming from a commanding general in a briefing with other officers.

I don't pass judgement on people's speech when they put their lives on the line to defend our country's freedoms.

Freedom of speech is freedom of speech. It's not freedom of just certain speech but of all speech.

BTW, "The Treasure of The Sierra Madre" was released in 1948, the year I was born. Culture has changed quite a bit in the last 70 years.

“Nothing worse than somebody telling everybody else how they should act or speak.”

Then stop doing it.
