It's.
Not.
It's a fact that most decent people don't like rape, and probably that you personally have a very strong personal reaction to it. But if someone thinks rape is okay, either generally or in specific contexts, you don't get to say they are just wrong on their facts.
I know you don't think it is. I was presenting my beliefs on the matter.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
