  • I won’t even remotely consider voting for anyone who refuses to apply for and receive security clearance because having it is essential to running the country. The system currently in place is fine, no need for your ai-generated utopian wish.

    Parties at the bottom of the polls can promise literally anything in their platform, it’s irrelevant because they’re not going to form government.

    This election is do or die for our sovereignty, for our economy, and likely for our very existence. We face an absolutely real threat, and now is not the time to let vote splitting allow the conservatives to win.

    I used to vote conservative, but I will never vote for a party with a “leader” that is like a dollar store version of Trump, who parrots many of the same bullshit talking points, including the use of childish nicknames for people. The refusal to apply for a security clearance is shady, and implies that he’s hiding something.

    I will never support a party that wants to take away people’s rights, whether women, visible minorities, lgbtq, or anything else. Don’t even get me started on healthcare.

    The government is to support the citizens, not to remove rights and cause harm.

    Because everyone on Reddit is American? Or that the entire planet is supposed to understand nuanced differences between ounces and fluid ounces that only… what, 3 countries on the planet use?

    It’s about the typeface. Back in the day of manual or electric typewriters, we had monospace fonts, meaning that every character had the same width. A lowercase “i” got the same horizontal width as an uppercase “M”.

    Now we have word processors and proportional fonts, and the spacing after a period is built into the typeface.

    One space after a period is correct, unless you are using Courier (or similar).
