  • What you’re advocating is called genocide. Genocide is bad.

    We’ve tried this ‘separating mentally ill from society’ before - they were called asylums. We stopped doing that because they’re inhumane. (There is an academic debate on if they’re inherently such or simply attract/foster abuse, but were not having that debate today.)

    What you’re suggesting is an international crime and violation of human rights. Please reconsider.






  • Hose is pronounced /hōz/ and dose is pronounced /dōs/ in “Standard English” (which is a specific and deliberately invented dialect taught to news anchors to try to smooth out all the regional differences), actual english varies so much over time and space that both words have numerous variations - https://www.howtopronounce.com/hose, plus we change our inflection on words depending on where they are in a sentence - and plenty of context can change if the emphasis is on the vowel or the ending consonant: All my hoes know a hose is a hose.

    Simply put - as long as people understand the ideas you’re conveying, don’t worry too much about precise spelling and punctuation - it’s literally all made up.
