I don't think arguments should be considered to be violence
one cay say that it's not the argument per se that amounts to violence. but if the argument encompasses an injurious attitude of dehumanization, of disrespect, that is violence. it's the attitude, not the argument.
it doesn't matter if it hurts one person or everyone. murder doesn't cease to be violence just because it's not genocide.
cutting violence off at the physical boundary is too limiting. there are various other kinds of harms and injuries that are not physical, but that are even more hurtful and damaging.
