24 hour time is the objectively superior way of communicating time for a multitude of reasons, as I will clearly and succinctly demonstrate to you, you useless fucking cretin. First, some background information. 12 hour time was invented by an ancient civilisation known as the Mesopotamians. You may have heard of them. Or, you may have not, both because you are a lobotomised fucking defect, and because they died out nearly 2000 years ago, primarily because of their perverse obsession with the number 12. 12 hour time originated as a practical solution to the problem of being a fucking stone age civilisation lacking more suitable technology, much like how cupping your fucking hands together seems like a practical solution to transporting water when you haven't figured out how to make pottery yet. 12 hour time is suitable if your only way of determining the time is a sundial, aka a little stick in the ground with some lines haphazardly scrawled around it, you mentally defective oaf. This of course is highly useful, provided you haven't yet grasped the notion that days are longer in summer and shorter in winter, or that clouds exist. In case it has escaped your notice, the sun is not visible for roughly half the duration of the day, also known as the night. During this time, the sun is not able to cast light on your little stick, making it pointless to mark out those hours on the ground. However, we live in an Enlightened and Intelligent age, one that started with the invention of the mechanical timepiece by the esteemed mechanical engineer Archimedes. No, not the bird, the engineer. It has been continuously possible since that moment to continue monitoring the passage of time even during the night hours, making the entire reason for 12 hour time moot. 12 hour time is objectively inferior in every single way, requiring additional context for anyone to understand what the fuck you are even saying, although as a halfwitted simpleton people probably struggle to understand you anyway
