I think your whole Galileo point doesn't really work in this context. I honeslty think if anything it backs up what I'm saying
Be tolerent of everyone unless they are genuinley making life worse for others.
When you resort to petty name calling, questioning the intelligence of those you disagree with or refusing to have dialogue then people will look toward the ballot to be heard, we've seen it several times in elections recently, you cannot shut down dialogue on opinions you dont like or deem unsuitable, it's a very dangerous stance.
I totally agree with you Splott-light. We've had this attitude especially since the EU referendum.
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!
There's definitely more of a "line in the sand" culture. The days of respectful debate are over sadly.
