School district bans the dictionary to comply with Ron DeSantis’s book-ban law
School district bans the dictionary to comply with Ron DeSantis’s book-ban law
Dictionaries contain words that potentially violate the law's broad language...
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…
He doesn't seem like much of an adult to me
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.
TIL
I can readily understand that someone like Ron would have no idea why anybody would ever use a dictionary. 😅
The most confusing thing about dictionaries is why are they so torn on the topic of bridges?
My mom always has an “unabridged” version but mine is a regular dictionary complete with the word “bridge”.
That joke is a bridge too far! 🙄
There's a lot of smut in the Bible.
Other places have gone after the bible where laws like this are in place.
Which is why they added exceptions for it after people got it removed.
Maybe they go after all Christian books ,you know the ones praising the glory of Yahweh, which is just a semitic war god (if you pay attention to history).
Once when I was a kid, our pastor gave a sermon. Something about lions.
But he mixed up how to spell lions. He was old. So all the Bible verses he used were actually about loins.
That was a funny lesson and complete waste of time.
But there are a lot of loins in the King James Version
I remember that someone actually challenged the bible because of that.
Why does he always look like he just got done crying?
Have you seen his poll numbers?
He also looks like both Joe Dirt's and Ricky's (Trailer Park Boys) dad. How fitting for a Floridaman.
How does Desantis cope with the internet? Is it banned in Florida too?
Still here. For now.
I thought this was an onion article? Can someone confirm if this is satire? It doesn’t seem like a satire site but I still thought I would check. Because if not… I don’t even know what to say. I don’t even know.
I mean it’s kinda satire in a way. Only one school district is interpreting the law this copiously. The others don’t seem to have trouble understanding the spirit of the law.
Republicans are all terrible people.
