Try addressing the reasoning that I explicitly laid out rather than restating your own reasoning that we started off with. That’s how conversation works. I have no problem having a rational back and forth discussion, but if you won’t even respond to my actual reasoning there’s no point to it. I don’t want to antagonize someone who is ultimately on my side, but you sure make it hard to resist by being so inflammatory. I understand you’re upset and think I did a horrible thing, but I also think the same thing about you, yet I am not holding it so harshly against you because I understand your heart was in the right place. If someone keeps being so aggressive to me, I’m only human, and its hard for me to keep a level head. But I want to keep a level head and have a reasonable discussion. I can tell you that I’m open to having my mind changed, although perhaps you may not believe that. But if you want to actually change someone’s mind, I’m right here and ready to talk about it. But I ask that you at least respond to the reasoning I laid out, not just my claim but my reasoning for it, and to try to be respectful. I get that it’s not always possible, I mess up too (I’ve done it in this same thread), but let’s just try to assume the best of each other and be open to being wrong (me too) and maybe we could actually come away from this with at least one changed mind.

Edit: I’ll happily try to elaborate in response to your other comments if you want, but it seems like you would rather I just shut up, so its up to you. I don’t wanna waste time typing out an argument that you aren’t interested in having
