In many cases, the word "kill" can never be used, even if it's in a comedic context. Making the body count of an originally violent work significantly lower, or zero. Removing offensive imagery. An adaptation makes a character's usual dress sense much less revealing than in the original, or tones down or cuts incidents involving characters being naked or partially-clad. Characters can't enjoy a cigarette (be it tobacco — or, in more extreme cases, cannabis, crack cocaine or meth), lest more impressionable viewers imitate what they see. Changing a homosexual or transgender character into a heterosexual or cisgender character (and turning their gay or lesbian relationships into heterosexual ones) for less tolerant audiences. Replacing sensitive words with their "safer" variants Replacing realistic weapons with more fantastic or less lethal, often silly, ones. This involves the removal the "ethnic gesture". It might be as subtle as obscuring onscreen foreign characters or changing the names of people and places. Taken to extremes, the dubbed script is filled with local pop culture references that were not in the original and scenes of uniquely foreign conventions are edited out. Covering up extreme gore and blood through digital editing or redrawing the carnage so it's less shocking. Editing, delaying, or banning something due to the plot being similar to a real-life current event that may be considered to be done in poor taste If works are edited to remove material "unsuitable" for minors. Replacing alcohol with non-alcoholic drinks (usually juice, soda, or water) and hand-waving the drunken behavior as "acting crazy" or "being a jerk". Strip clubs and other sex establishments have the workers in relatively "innocent" skimpy clothes rather than being naked, topless, or in some kind of overt fetish costume. Using digital editing to add clothes to naked people or to make someone's clothes less revealing. The villain can't be a member of a race, ethnic group, religion, or social class that has historically been persecuted. Even when the group the hated character represents hasn't been persecuted, may still come into play if the group the character represents wields a lot of power in society and threatens a boycott of the work.
