You can switch up the definition of "TELLING YOU WHAT TO DO" with whatever other synonym you want of Impose Thy Will, it will not change the words or give the context the author initially set up with "If you respond with". You clearly have that certain specific, precise ax to grind, and why do I make that speculation, because rhetorically: is it my business to ASK what people mean and to reach an understanding and not appease to emotion but meaning, logic, context, or even better and much more easy: invent, laugh, and rinse and repeat?
