What's next; banning certain letters from the alphabet, because they can be used for banned texts?

I vote we just ban DeSantis because he’s a dick. Clearly adult content…

Erdoğan unbanned the letters Q, W and X, which can be used for Kurdish texts, in his 2013 reforms, so I think it'd be a bit too soon to re-ban them now already, so that's probably not next.

I had to look this up, but it is a fact that certain letters were banned. I should not be so amazed. Back in the 1960's the Greek junta banned the letter Z, because it meant 'he is alive.'

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z_(1969_film) the movie is a fictional, but based on the actual events.

I should not be so amazed.

The one thing that amazed me was that it was Erdoğan of all people who eventually found it politically expedient to lift the ban.

No E because of Estrogen

No T because of Testosterone

No X or Y because of chromosomes

Ron DSanis and Donald Rump approv his mssag.

Now without the D for Disney.

May as well also get rid of G for gender, H for healthcare, I for intersectionality, L for liberal, M for marijuana, N for nonbinary, O for orange, P for progressive, R for radical, S for socialism, U for union, and V for vaccine.

Aaaaa
