I'm not cheering for "Might makes Right".

If you value dialogue, and if someone who doesn't decides "Might makes Right", you're going to have to be "mighty" enough to at least defend your values. Else, your values will be stomped out. Or as I said, you need to accept the consequences of surrender (or absolute pacifism).

I'm not saying anyone is right or wrong in this, just pointing out the logical consequences.
