Actually no, what you're doing is taking a specific claim about media exploiting nonviolence and using it as propaganda, to proselytize nonviolence itself, using an old book.

If what I am saying isn't true, why would you feel the need to do that?

Also, why would it even matter how old nonviolence is? I said media et al. is using nonviolence, not that they invented it.
