things differently than you. (Referring only to your third paragraph here).

If you had couched your description in a way that invited response or discussion, it might come across as more persuasive.

When you start the discussion by calling any ideas that don't coincide with yours bullshit and lacking substance, you have effectively closed down the conversation.

But, perhaps, that is what your intent was. You appear to have dismissed any counter ideas before I ever responded to you.
