Why isn't it wrong? Does it advance dialogue? Does it make them see the error of their ways? Does it not stiffen their resolve? Does it not communicate to them that you are not on a higher moral level than them? You talk about MLK but ultimately ignore what is both a morally superior ideology and a pragmatic method of shaming the other side into silence at the very least and possibly even changing their view point.
