What counts as violence? Does a parent disciplining their child by taking their dessert away count as violence?

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yes

behavior involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something.

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 2 points 1 year ago

Do you propose, then, that everyone should be allowed to do as they please with absolutely zero rules?

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Point to where I added my opinion.

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Forgive me for assuming you considered violence to be bad.

Since we've presupposed that all authority must in some way stem from the threat of violence, a hatred for violence cannot exist without a hatred for authority.

I ask again, point to where I added my opinion on the matter.

What exactly is your point.

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 1 points 1 year ago

I just did, and I stated it two replies ago.

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You have not quoted me once, you've projected your feelings into my statements and yet cannot explain which one you're deriving your flawed opinion of me from.

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This thread started because you asked someone to name a single nonviolent revolution. Such a thing cannot possibly exist, especially considering your inexplicably broad definition of that word.

You cannot seriously equate shooting someone with taking a child's dessert away, simply because you consider them both to be violence. Considering this I'm a bit confused as to your point.

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That was my point.

Point to where I ever said or implied such a thing, please you don't actually have a point without a quote you can reference.

[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

So you aren't presenting an opinion and your intent with this discussion was just to stir the pot for no reason.

Good to know I'm talking to a troll. Have a nice life.

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I provided a statement of fact, if that's stirring the pot to you then consider it stirred.

Not at all, I've responded in good faith, why you're upset is beyond me.
