Because one is socially unacceptable while the others are in common usage. We can't convince liberals that a word they and everyone they know uses multiple times a day in casual conversation is as bad as the r slur. If the pendulum shifts and 'dumbass' becomes as taboo as the r word, then we can make it policy. Otherwise we'd just be pushing a boulder up a hill.
