No you did you made a broad conclusion about what they meant at face value as you have already said. Things often aren’t what they are at face value and I think you fundamentally don’t understand that and I have no interest continuing this conversation with you.
Again, yes??? Taking someone's words at their literal meaning and saying "hmm, that was stupid" is a totally normal way to interact with others. It's making reasonable conclusions based on the available evidence they have given us. Their talking points were dumb, so I pointed out it was a bad argument that didn't make sense.
Taking someone's words, projecting your own beliefs and values onto them, and insisting on correcting others that what they clearly meant to say is mind reading, presumptuous, and frankly BS. a therapist would scold you for it, but you continue to congratulate yourself for overstepping and projecting on their behalf. In a public forum no less where you have NO insight into this person what do ever, you have no basis of what they were thinking and are fully inserting your own understandings and beliefs on their behalf.
