    When that opinion is shutting down dialogue, cowardly avoidance and censorship, it becomes a far dumber opinion than anyone else’s.

      I think there’s absolutely things worth doing boycotts over. I don’t really like to have much to do with anything that is benefiting Russia for example. We can both have our opinions.

        I can agree with and support that. I would not extend that boycott to trying to silence other individuals though. I’d prefer to try to convince them.

      If all dialogue was in good faith, I would agree. Unfortunately not all discussion exists to obtain new perspectives, but to push harmful agendas. Those dialogues should absolutely be disregarded.
