uneducated garbage.
"Jesus' own story offers an illustration of his imperative. If he speaks of eschewing violence and not resisting evil, of being slapped, of having one's clothes taken, and of being compelled to serve the Romans, the conclusion of his own life makes his works concrete; he eschews violence; he does not resist evil; he is struck; he has his garments taken; and his cross is carried by one requisitioned by Roman order. Here then we meet two themes found throughout Matthew; the congruence between word and deed, speech and action - an idea so important for Hellenistic philosophy- and Jesus' status as moral exemplar, which requires imitation of Christ."
- The Oxford Bible Commentary pg 855
You clearly do not imitate Christ.
