All this says is: "What you are saying could or could not be true."

Why write so much to say so little?

If you think they're "ensconced in a bubble", say it. If you think they "lack ... imagination" or empathy", then say it.

Don't do this motte and bailey stuff of: "have you considered that you sounds like someone who's wrong?"

You didn't understand what I was attempting, and proceeded project some other intention onto me.

Your paraphrase is a misreading.

Sorry, I'm not very bright. Why don't you try explaining things explicitly, so simpler folk like me can understand?

You shouldn't lecture people about how they should say things when you can only speculate without much basis about what they're actually trying to do.

Again, I'm not very bright. I don't understand what this:

>That's an extremely strong statement. It's the kind of thing someone firmly ensconced in a bubble would say. Is what you say true, or do you just lack the imagination or empathy to think of one?

was trying to do, and this comment hasn't really made it any clearer. Can you explain it explicitly?
