Alternative political spellings

The orthodox spellings of common words are often altered to make a political point, particularly in informal writing on the Internet, but also in some serious political writing that opposes the status quo. For example, letters used to represent the hard "k" sound can be replaced with the letters "KKK," the initials of Ku Klux Klan; or the letter "S" can be replaced with a dollar sign ($).
