The title 'Z'

This is absurd. Also, needs to be in off topic.

People go out of their way to associate stuff and it just enters realms of absurdity.
It was the same with coding and people going out of their way to find words like '' master '' and '' slave '' and associating it with the history of slavery in the US.
9 out of 10 times it's not even the people it'd be relevant to getting upset about it, and if anything it only makes people take things less seriously ( boy who cried wolf and all that ).
It was the same with the term '' blacklist '', '' black '' being associated with negativity was never a race thing it had to do with the darkness of night vs day and people being afraid of it and in some languages it even had the same meaning as death etc.
But people jump to '' black '' = dark-skinned person, and they don't understand the irony and hypocrisy.

It's the same psychological thing humans have that leads to people associating negative traits to different ethnicties too, humans are kinda hard-wired to look for associations and link things together.
Most people understand how dumb something like this is but some don't and just have tunnel vision.
It's the same with the okay hand sign for example where a bunch of people on 4chan started trolling about how it was a racist dogwhistle and then media outlets and people on social media ran with it and gave into it.
And you had people just accusing random people of being racist for doing it in photos even years back.

It's such a toxic aspect of human psychology and sadly in some people it's way worse and they have zero self-awareness about it.

Man, what a first post you made, OP.

No.

How many threads are we at now. Four? Five? Seven?
Time and time again the answer is no, it will always be no. It's a gundam refrence and its sticking around regardless of yet another eastern european conflict. Now stop asking and stop using alts to post the same question over and over, OP.

There's no need. The title has its own meaning in the game. Just because it's being used elsewhere for something else doesn't negate that meaning.

Lets just removed it from the Alphabet too please.

I'm fine for changing it for this reason. Not the OP's reason. Maybe there is a reference or something I don't get, but its perhaps my least favorite title in the game

No real hidden reference. You get it from The Letter Z achievement and that comes from obtaining an ARR Zeta relic. Those are easier than they were, but it's still an accomplishment.

I use it on my alt because she's got mostly story-related titles so I instead take pleasure in displaying a title she put some work in for. I prefer others on my main and I'll probably change my alt once I get those on her.

To the mods, can we possibly keep one of these threads and you can prune as necessary so this topic stops coming up?

Quick summary just for you.
1). Don't bring politics into a video game.
2). It's just a letter.
3). Russian military uses lots of other letters for identification as well (like "V, "I" and "O"). Whole alphabet should be banned now?
4). No

SE is a business, businesses is withdrawing from Russia in big style, it would be the right thing to do.
