Tu quoque is not a denial, so I guess we are agreed on the point I was making about your hyperbole, erimir, and you understand my reason for not responding to your OP.

This is at best disingenuous. Do you genuinely believe that you and erimir are agreed?
That said, I think again you're not understanding a linguistic convention. The thread title is a sarcastic reference to comments you've made -- he's incorporating the "police brutality" comparison specifically because you yourself said, in your own words, that you thought there was a similarity. It's a reference to your hyperbole; obviously he doesn't mean it.

I promise I will come back to your unresolved issue when all mine have been resolved.

I do not think your issues will be resolved while you habitually put words in other peoples' mouths. You would do better to phrase your interactions as questions about what other people mean than assertions about what you've concluded they mean -- especially given your long history of being told that you guessed wrong.
