Our problem isn't that we have people who don't believe in man-made climate change or that we have people who think socialism might not be so bad after all. Our problem is that too many people are too thin-skinned and self-righteous to accept that a person with a different opinion than their own might have some legitimate points, and they're too lazy or dim-witted to craft a persuasive agreement in favor of their own position so they just resort to throwing insults. If insults are all you have, please don't bother. It doesn't help. It simply makes it look like you and, by association, your stated position are weak and indefensible.
