No. You made the same argument twice and got the same response twice.

I didn't make any argument twice. I only responded with an argument once. What did I argue twice?

Let me summarize the argument more cleanly:

Words are violence!!! Hearing death to America hurt me badly!!

vs actual invasions and bombings of your mainland from two hyperviolent countries with a long history of the same


Who's argument are you summarizing? Is this about the repeat comment?

The persons you were talking to.

The were arguing the opposite of what you said if anything. You sure you didn't respond to the wrong comment?

Big scary words are not violence. They can't hurt you. Bombings and invasions that killed people are violence.

I agree, I'm just confused where that fits in this thread.

Actual violence is much more antagonizing than mere hurt feelings.

I wouldn't classify full scale war as "antagonizing," but, if you want to downplay it, be my guest.
