Is Profanity tolerated in GTA's Universe?

Self-explanatory. You hear and see profanity everywhere in GTA. On radio ads, in children's films (Loneliest Robot in Great Britain), from nearly every in-game character, it leads me to think that society in GTA's world is less politically correct on stuff like this. It has been hinted that's it's somewhat unacceptable a few times though like in Michael's film Meltdown in GTA V where a character states that saying "f*ck" will get them an "R rating" or the "Cursebuster BC" radio ad in GTA IV.

 

Maybe I'm analyzing too much, just wanted to hear your thoughts. That said, this is some of the stuff that makes GTA's world so amusing.

You're probably analyzing too much. I thought of it a few times, but I've thought of a theory, like Republican Space Rangers, etc. is some kind of adult-targeted cartoon and all the kid shows are unviewable by the player. Wild theory, though.

Republican Space Rangers reminds me of an Adult Swim show. Even if there were "kid" shows though, I imagine they'd be loaded with sexual innuendo.

Well, kids apparently don't even exist in the GTA universe. They've never even been seen in the cutscenes. Maybe the shows are all made for adults.

There is just one, the chosen one.

I think the profanity is not as much of a big deal in GTA. Since even the ads on billboards sometimes have profanity it could mean that people just simply don't care. Also, this is GTA. A world in which everyone is corrupt, even the government ;)

If that were the case, then why is there a police force in the first place?

I didn't think about that. Well, we could say that they keep the police just in case things get a bit too out of hand or something.
