Perhaps we should start viewing the opinions of others as exactly what they are: just opinions. Let's act less outraged and surprised when the opinions of others are different from ours. And most importantly, show RESPECT towards the opinions of others.

It was pitched as free speech, but I don't think it would be fair to call it free speech to begin with. Issue with free speech is that misinformation spreads like wildfire, not-so-benevolent actors can manipulate the narrative with upvotes and other strategies, and it renders the "free speech", not actually free speech even if there's no censorship.

I don't have the answers. I just wish people stopped being assholes and started viewing each other as extensions of themselves.
