A language is a thing. It may have syntax and semantics that bias it towards the conventions and philosophies of its designers. But in the end, a language by itself would have a hard time convincing a human being to adopt bad practises.
Perhaps someone should make a research whether if you teach a language to kids, where one group is taught the language filtered from "bad words" and another group is taught all the languages' "bad words" on purpose. Will one group have more behavioral problems compared to the other?
