I am not "pretending" anything. That's quite a personally aggressive term and I don't know what your beef against me is.

I don't have anything against what you wrote but I think that it has no discussion value in context and probably in general.

I would suggest that you take a look at the "Politics and the English Language" essay by Orwell. The person you are responding to is making a fair point that this is well trodden ground, albeit not in the most diplomatic terms. It would be helpful to engage with the arguments presented, otherwise we are just spinning our wheels here unconsciously relitigating issues from the 1930s.
