Here, let me quote myself again:Do I mention anywhere in there that Superman wasn't applying any force on the building or that strength has got nothing to do with force? No, I said force isn't equal to strength, which is what you were claiming.
I don't mind proceed on this debate with you but I'm not going to bother if you're going to be completely dishonest about it. That's H1 tactics.
Now, let me ask again so we can move forward. Do you at least agree that from a physics context, force is not equal to strength?
Lol, you just quoted something that isn't your original statement. Let me refresh your memory:

Your claim is that Superman's feat is one of strength, whereas Hulk isn't. As if both feats don't involve force, specially in this scenario, where "strength" (lifting a building) is literally force. You need force to lift up something.
So, if strength under your argument above, isn't force, then, how do you describe it?
Quick tip:
Physical strength is the measure of an animal's exertion of force on physical objects.

It's pretty clear by now, that your notion of strength under the scene in context is erroneous.
Me, dishonest? Dude, literally every site (dictionaries, wikipedia, physics pages) are clearly telling you that Force is Strength! Even Thesaurus, is saying that strength is a synonym of force!
The problem with you is that you fail to realize that strength is the urban word used to describe force! When you are at the gym, you say: that guy is stronger than the other because he is lifting a heavier weight, instead of going all scientific and saying: that guy is applying a greater force on the weight than that other guy.
Now, if you are so convinced that I'm being dishonest, then I'm willing to take this to a BZ.
That should be enough to demonstrate that I'm serious here and that I'm confident over my understanding of physics
