What does Luke 6:29 mean?

If someone slaps you on one cheek, offer them the other one too. If someone takes your coat, don’t stop them from taking your shirt as well. Luke 6:29 - Modern Text Bible

(Jesus is teaching a way of life that refuses to retaliate or hold onto possessions. He’s calling for a radical generosity and nonviolence, even when wronged.)
