The Bible is very clear on this “Even if they know, Christ still calls us to forgive (Col 3:13). Our part is mercy; judgment belongs to God (Rom 12:19).”

I won't hit first but I won't turn the other cheek either.
You don’t have to obey Jesus, but I hope that you do
Turning the cheek is a symbol of non-violent defiance.
In Rome, slaves were slapped with the back of the hand- while citizens or equals would be slapped in society with the palm, open and “polite” in those days.
By “turning the check” what you are saying is: “I am not your slave”
Christ demonstrated non/violent resistance to tyranny throughout his time on earth.
It’s Marxist propaganda that twists those stories into wrongful “submissiveness”
