Maybe that was your goal, but as you can see in this very thread, the first reply to me literally did lump me in with those bullies you speak off.

So it isn't just me who took that message from your writing, it was people who presumably agree with you too.

Saying, now, "well, it was not an us vs them argument", is pointless: if everyone is interpreting your message incorrectly, it's not everyone that is wrong.
