Not sure why your reply didn’t show up in my mailbox but I happened to spot it when scrolling through the thread again… So to answer your question, no it wasn’t about willfully missing your point, but rather that I wasn’t certain exactly where your argument was leading. I did catch the drift of the idea that both arguments could be true, I’ve just been jaded by reading enough shills on reddit who came back with “Putin wuz justified!” shit that I didn’t want to leave it to chance.
