No, you don't.

You're not on the receiving end of people calling you subhuman for your believes. And if someone does, you will observe that many rush to your aid. Me among them. That's on the same line. If someone degrades someone just for who they are, they need to be called out. That's the same on the individual level as it is on the broad brush level.

Intolerance should never be tolerated.

I wasn't referring to my treatment. 

I was referring to the fact that I try not to judge you guys or think the worse of yall's motives for the very different opinions and values you hold. 

For example, I would never say you guys support "baby killing" for being pro choice. I understand that you guys don't see it as baby killing and that to you, it isn't about that at all... it's about taking care of the women who are in tough situations. I don't agree for a second, and I'll voice my disagreement in discussion. But I can understand that you see it differently and that you aren't bad ppl for it.

I use the same type of thinking to refrain from calling Trump voters "racism supporters." 

That's what I meant.
"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."
