            Reply to the “so don’t do anything?” jump straight to nihilism in response to suggestion that one route hasn’t been successful lately in the near military state? Like we’ve never heard of Occupy Wall Street, million women march, Antifa?

            No I didn’t take it as a serious enough question. It was a judgement question, not a curiosity one. A curious question would have been “if you don’t think that works, what could be done instead?”

            “But ok.”

                But you jumped from “protests haven’t been effective” to “so don’t do anything?”

                    You really need to check your ego. You keep thinking that I’m avoiding some discussion or debate with you or something. But you’re not even reading what I’m saying. I don’t care about your disingenuous question.

                    THE SECOND you put “so do nothing?” you weren’t interested in my thought. You just want to judge. That’s it. You want to be right and argue why you’re right. So I didn’t respond to your “so do nothing?” Because it isn’t genuine. I tried to explain that to you, but you still think I’m just avoiding “the question”.

                    What I mean is if you want to discuss with someone, don’t take a cynical comment and immediately apply nihilism if your intent is to learn and discuss. My intent wasn’t to learn and discuss. Neither was yours. Because you demand a response doesn’t mean you are entitled to anything. And if someone doesn’t want to stumble along your thinking path doesn’t mean they’re avoiding your judgemental question. It may, however, mean they’ve dismissed your question
