Iβm not much of an β/sβ guy, but I think these six letters (parody) can avoid misleading without ruining the fun :)
We don't need shit like that around here. Conservative / christofascist fucks say enough things that we can malign. Don't make shit up unless it's impossible for someone to misperceive as real.
