Nobody is saying what you are disagreeing with. We're all on the same side here and agree with the same stuff just saying it differently and you can't understand that for some reason. You're flipping out for no reason and I'm trying to explain that but it seems to be only making it worse for you somehow

Flipping out? If you think anyone who presents an alternative viewpoint is automatically upset, I don't know how to speak with you.

And yes, my opinion is different from the one I responded to. I don't agree with that analogy, fundamentally, as I explained.

My disagreement isn't rooted in an emotional response, nor am I upset. Sure seems like you are, though.

How could you disagree with the analogy when you fundamentally don't understand it. You think it means something completely different than what the poster meant it to say

My initial response to you got upvoted, which means the general public thinks my explanation was better than your interpretation.

Now that obviously isn't proof, but it is a thought that maybe you should reconsider.

6 people = the general public?

That you believe that gives me a lot to consider, and it doesn't make your point of view more favorable.
