Stephen, let me give you a tip about being heard. If you want to be heard, then people must understand what you are saying. I never understood a word of what you were talking about, and I'm not stupid - by any standard. You use jargon. And jargon is a big no-no when you want to communicate with people.

Let's look at these two lines. They were the best of a bad lot.

"I’ve been soliciting logical argument against for over a decade without any manifesting."

Rather write:

I've been writing about this for a decade now, but I'm getting nowhere."

Now let's look at the lines following:

" Addressing imagined concerns often illuminates additional benefit, which cascades from doing the right thing."

I don't know what you think you said there, but I can make neither head nor tale of it.How the fuck is figuring out things that don't exist in anyway beneficial, and how does figuring out an imaginarty thing eventually result in the right thing?

That is just nonsense.

I think you need to rewrite what you were saying to me.
