Tomato / Tomato, same thing.

Using all capital letters (ALL CAPS) in text-based communication is widely interpreted as shouting, anger

Bold characters can be used for emphasis

Not exactly.

While writing entire blocks of text in all caps is indeed what you say, and indicative of INSANITY as Mr. Trump often does, using ALL CAPS for EMPHASIS while loud, is an acceptable style choice. Obviously less common than using bold, italics, or underlines, it is still OK.

Cheers.

In the past, bolded text was extremely frowned upon, as you know, on TV.

Therefore, UPPER CASE was the only permissible option.

This is not MY doing, Sir.

Note: I almost always use UPPERCASE judiciously.

That's an important distinction.

In ONLINE writing, using all caps for emphasis is more common and again, it is certainly acceptable.

I guess it's understandable that people who correctly know that writing entirely in all caps is indeed shouting and insane make the jump to think that apples to use in emphasis as well. But that's wrong.

About the usage of UPPERCASE when posting:

5. Do not post text with all capital letters or with over-sized fonts, all bold font, non-standard fonts, colored fonts or unusually large emojis.

We liberals must band together and stand with Iran. We must support their outstanding record on freedom of speech, women's rights, and gay rights.

Um. No.

Opposing the way Trump started and has run this war has nothing to do with supporting the Iranian regime.

You don't have to give Israel nukes, and if they wanted iran of the map, Iran would have been a barren desert by now.

Much of Nobel Prize success derives from heavy government spending in research.

I might be wrong, and I am sure that you will tell me.

While iran spend trillions on arming proxies to eleminate Israel because the ''care for the palestinians''

Israel spend similar amounts on producing scientists and researchers to better the life of humanity, and Oh yeah, to defend itself.

First of all I gave the red thumb down that you do deserves, secondly, if israel is the definition of TERRORISTS, what would you call those groups that have been declared as TERRORISTS by the UN and a hole host of other nations? martyrs?

So why did they not use chemical weapons against Iraq during the 8 years of war even though

Iraq killed thousands of Iranians with chemicals supplied by you know who ?

Iran. But without the extremist leadership. Israel has more or less self revoked the right to continue to exist as a nation by becoming the new terrorist nation within the Middle East.

I am aware others believe the high civilian casualties in Gaza mean the IDF has committed war crimes or genocide, but I don't share that opinion. The civilian deaths in Gaza are a tragic consequence of urban warfare in a densely populated area combined with the Hamas strategy of hiding fighters, weapons and firing points among noncombatants.

Israel does not have a policy of committing war crimes, but it is possible some IDF members, a small number, have violated accepted rules of war.

If I had a magic wand, I would purge the genocidal leadership - and their hardcore followers - of both countries without mercy and save the good and ordinary citizens of both countries to move on and live in peace.

There's the problem, as both think they are the chosen religion, and only they should exist.

Most Jews believe they are the only ones entitled to Jerusalem & Israel, along with their Zionist expansion of any areas nearby.

Muslims, well we all know, if not a follower of Islam, then an infidel, convert or death is your only option to exist.

Horrible people deserving of each other, IMHO, and someone please NUKE THEM BOTH

OP, you might want to take into consideration that God will preserve Israel, and more particularly Jerusalem since Christ will be returning to sit on HIS throne in Jerusalem and begin his 1000-year reign on the earth.

I do agree that murdering diplomats can be most counterproductive if one's aim is to achieve some sort of peace among nations.

I must say I’m enjoying my Saturday morning, yet again reading your posts.

I find them quite amusing, witty and at times thought provoking.

Keep it up, your imagination is vivid, your curiosity commendable and coupled with at times dry humour as well as ability to stir other people’s supposed sense of dignity, certainly keeps me entertained. 😊

But, if one were to disregard the effects of a nuclear weapon attack, I still favor the culture of Iran. The Iranians seem much less warlike than the Israelis, and this is just based on my reading of the Hebrew Bible, among other sources.

You are somehow right and I must say IR regime of Iran does not represent the real people of Iran. As you mentioned Persian culture is thousands years old, but this regime created (by removing king of Iran to satisfy Arabs oil market and deeper investments by EU) in less than 50 years ago. France,UK and Germany are depend on business with Iran deeply (investment). Even UK economy near collapse by the war.

I would preserve both finally, because when you see their young fresh busty hottie ladies...both nations have much to contribute to our western mongrel instincts 😜...because when the iranian ladies come over to any western nation, you should see how they "open up"...😜

Apparently he's the most unlikeable VP in American history.

People can see he's a soulless shape shifter owned by corporate anti democracy techno fascists.

He may have been "authentic" earlier in his life. Doesn't matter now.
