From Aus. Here it essentially depends on the context and adjective proceeding the word and can be substituted for ‘person’,
slur discussion including censored ableist slurs
i.e… good c* means ‘good person’, funny c* means ‘funny person’.
Calling someone a dumb c* may mean ‘oh you silly billy’ (endearing/condescending) or ‘you f-ing m*ron’ (insulting) depending on context, more likely the latter.
Overwhelmingly it used in this manner by men to refer to other men.
On its own it is almost certainly negative.
You would not use it in polite company
It is not as widely used as some people would like to pretend online (though it is heavily used by some)
