Ignoring what we’re fighting about, just think of what you said there. You are saying (correct me if I’m wrong) that we should just not allow people with opinions that contradict you to not have any power

That was a reaction to them saying that they hope I'm not a parent. Which I am. Obviously not a good reaction, but it happened.

EDIT: I also hate stuff like this that directly attacks the person with the ideas. I have noticed that the replies to you became a lot ruder after you said that (probably it rubbed off.) I thing it is important to be calm in a discussion

I feel that I was attacked first and replied with similar energy, but oh well. That's how everyone feels in these things, right?
