Resisting what an attacker expects back is far from doing nothing. The trickle of love or hate in the world begins and ends with the individual. I'm not saying stand by and watch as the world burns, I'm saying resist what would otherwise lead its inevitable destruction anyway, and what lead to it beginning to burn in the first place, in any circumstance, now and forever.

To hate back is to only fan this flame, and accelerate this process, and decelerate any potential for the opposite; of peace.

Intentionally failing to kill a nazi in WW2 when given the chance while they attack your neighbors is doing nothing.

This is regarding a circumstance in the midst of your point view, of how we would typically respond to evil inherently—in the midst of battle, etc.

I'm referring to going about it in a more organized, collective manner; especially one that makes it very clear who the bad guys really are, and why were doing it especially. A way that quite frankly, I'm wildly ignorant to, because of not only how little this idea has been practiced throughout the centuries due to our inherency to the opposite—and I'll admit it's ability to hold up nowadays with nuclear bombs and still so much oath taking going on and how little the relevance of selflessness is from becoming common knowledge; it makes it all very doubtful. But honestly, I'd rather die giving up my life for a cause with the most amount of potential for peace behind it, opposed to the one thats lead the to the need for anyones life needing to be taken in the first place, that would otherwise lead God awful amounts of men to be forced into dying in my stead, or to be yet another amoungst the cattle bring butchered in war myself.
