While those are alarming speciffics, especially when taken out of context, it's what extreme paciffism teaches, and it's no different than what Jesus said.

When they wanted to flog him, he let them. When they wanted to kill him, he let them. He didn't say 'Turn the other cheek unless they hit you really hard.'

Most people would find what Ghandi or Jesus asked of them completely nuts if they really looked at it. I concider myself way out on the curve of paciffism, and I couldn't do what they ask.

What's your point? That by actually putting the practice into real world, concrete terms tat included the mention of actual races and people that makes it more nuts?

It's not like he said

"The Jews should welcome the butcher knives, but not Indians. I just realy hate Jews."

If you want to talk about him being a nutcase, go with the diaper and the not eating.
