Turkey Legalizes the Letters Q, W and X

After 85 years of being banned, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s “Democratization Package” has legalized the formerly banned letters Q, W and X. In the early twentieth century, the secular government of Kemal Atatürk sought to sweep.

As if those letters used to exist in the rotten Ottomans.. come on, “secular government of Atatürk” changed the fate of a nation that has now been strangling by Erdogan’s fist.

Unfortunately. Hopefully there is more democracy in Turkey soon. It is drifting away from pluralism too much.
