This is written word, it's incomplete, it's flawed. Please do not assume the worst. I am responding in good faith to you here : I am genuinely hoping for everybody to come around to the fact that violence plays a central part in our societies, that it historically has, and that it may again -even if we don't like it
I do assume good faith. But can you see the problem with saying, "I'm hoping that everyone eventually sees that they're wrong and I'm right"?
On its face I agree. But I think it plays a pernicious role and personally I don't want anything to do with it.
You are extremely dishonest in interpreting the message from the one user who is excercising way too much patience with you. You should wash your mouth when you speak about MLK when spouting for your moralism.
Also, unfriendly tip: if you're gonna critizice people for being condescending to you, you shouldn't start your argument being condescending towards everyone a priori.
Finally, you have no moral high ground, your "non violence" apparently only applies to popular opinion and not state or politicians actions. Also, citing the French revolution as an example is woefully reductive and shows that maybe you should dust off your degree and read just a bit more.
MLK was one of the 20th century's three best known proponents of non-violence as a political method, along with Gandhi and Mandela. All three were hugely successful in achieving their aims.
About condescension, I'm trying but it's a difficult trick to pull off. Dishonesty is a more serious accusation that you would need to back up.
