I also don't care if people believe things and don't act on them, but that really isn't at all realistic. If it's just example 1 then that's fine, but that's really not how it plays out. I haven't even disagreed with you, all I've done is explain why I feel the need to speak out. You're acting like I've laid into you, and i haven't. You've been defensive from the get go and all I've done is explain myself, calmly and coherently. Sure, there might be some people that can understand their views only apply to them, they are the decent people. But they aren't the ones these conversations are necessarily aimed at, and saying leave them alone is basically asking us to leave the bad ones alone too, since we can't tell who's who via the Internet. You can always ask people to be civil, that's more sensible at least.
