Lol, that’s not how it fucking works.
Key words like that don’t just accidentally get filtered out with a “bug”.

We were developing a feature to push for those posts, but a bug made it so that they were blocked.
I guess this is one of the few cases in which that could be the result of a bug.

Not a chance. Not even remotely possible if they have automated testing (which they do) and qa staff verifying features (which they also do), and smoke/regression tests after deployment (which they do).
I’ve worked in this industry for 30 years, and the chance that that’s what happened, immediately after a takeover by people who really don’t want those terms searched on, and the feature was released in that state, and stayed in that state without a hotfix or patch going out and it wasn’t caught by their own testers, is practically nil.
