Will/Can respect come back for differing opinions?

There's definitely more of a "line in the sand" culture. The days of respectful debate are over sadly.

It's possible to look at the same point you make through a different prism. If someone in say, a Wetherspoons pub, regularly and loudly aired views about the Chinese, non-naturally born UK citizens and vulnerable young girls that you found distasteful then you could either rush over there offering them out in your pensionable years or go and have a few drinks in a different part of the pub where that kind of bollocks wasn't being uttered.

It might leave you wondering how likely the people who uttered the distasteful drivel would do so if they didn't have keyboards in the first place though!
