75 Yr old Wall Streeter: "There will be prosecutions & show trials & violence-mark my words"

[The Doctor.]

73. I asked you a question that exposes the lie behind your position.

It is very telling that you won't answer it.

The logic is very simple, I'm somewhat disappointed that you have chosen to disregard logic for the sake of a flawed position. Here is the question again:

Given that the author obviously believes there will be violence regardless of his personal desire and that the author has not expressed a desire to see that violence, if you were in his same position of certainty of inexorable violence, would you:

a) Wish for that violence to occur to random individuals regardless of their guilt or complicity in creating the circumstances that drove people to violence?

-OR-

b) Wish for that violence to occur to those directly responsible for creating the circumstances that drove people to violence?

You have not seemed to manage to comprehend the author's position that violence is the forgone conclusion. That it is a forgone conclusion is the direct reason that the author expressed hope that the violence would not occur to those who were innocent by expressing the hope that when it happens it only occurs to the guilty.

So, 'a' or 'b'?

(Or you could answer "c) I'm going to continue to ignore the position of the author on 'inexorable violence' so that I can continue to avoid a difficult question." And at that, we can put any answer you give besides 'a' or 'b' in category 'c' where it belongs.)
