I don’t know an answer

If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why?

What possible word could be banned? What language would it be in? Would it be an old word or new? Could it be a profanity or a religious word?

The question what word would you ban from general usage is impossible if I were to make the choice. Thinking about so many words that I hate or dispise gets me nowhere. Words that are political, or hate filled may have a use in describing a group or a situation. Remove the word and you remove the significance of it. Like editing out a person from a photo, you don’t remove the existence of them. You just try and hide a secret that should be left visible.

And again, what language is it in? I only speak and write English, but is the word German, or Swahili, Moroccan, Portuguese? What right do I have to chose? I say again, this is impossible.

I’m sure certain words do spring to mind. Perhaps we should consider using different words instead, not putting a blanket ban on it but considering a substitute.

What do you think?

Facebook just restricted me!

Why? I didn’t follow community standards! I can’t see how to object or explain myself, we are ruled by AI!

What? I’m on it too much, I might be adding spam!

All I did was ask when people want to celebrate my hubbys life.

I asked people to say day or night. Lots of people have commented and I was either pressing love or like to their comments.

Now I’m not allowed back for 1 hour!

So if you are grieving don’t talk to people on Facebook. They clearly don’t like it. I’m angry and upset.
