What could we do about it? This is a free ML, the game is a great idea and
if that harms Ruby than that is kind of tough luck.

But fortunately I think you are wrong,
1st there must be as many associations with bad words for about all
languages;
that one I am quite sure about
2nd I think that you overevaluate the impact of this ML to that kind of
people;
that one I might change my POV about if more informtation can be given.
