Nobody needs to keep opinions to themselves, because like you said, everyone is entitled to an opinion. People should just keep offensive or trollish comments to themselves. I don't like all opinions, but if it's not meant to be offensive I simply ignore it. I have openly expressed my dislike for a certain person on this site as well as my social networking. I'm not trying to put down anyone who is a fan, and my opinion may not be 100% right since I've never met or spoke to this person, I just make observations based on what I've seen and heard. Most opinions are based on observations.
As are most of every body elses opinions, why should they be heard if all the cause is hatred and fighting etc, opinions are opinions, they are not, nor never will be fact! You dislike one person so much, who is it? I'd be obliged to see why you dislike them so much? I say what I say because I know that others believe what I say is correct, I don't say it to be harmful or to cause arguments like people on some of the polls on IIN. I agree with everything you have said apart from your statement that opinions should not be kept to themselves. Selfish and obnoxious opinions and opinions that hurt others feeling need to be kept to themselves and themselves only. Opinions ruin the world, they start wars and ruin lives. Why would anyone like to be responsible for that? Peoples opinions have made others commit suicide because 'your too fat' or 'your a freak' even petty insults like these can cause people to resort to drastic measures to be rid of them! Those insults are that individuals opinions. How can anyone say that is right? I understand your reasoning and this is not me having a go at you but trying to express my feelings upon why I have said what I said, maybe you can see it from my perspective?
Insults are not opinions, they're insults and yes they do hurt. Opinions are likes/dislikes, religious and political beliefs, beliefs about things in general and shit like that and yes everyone CAN express those, just not disrespect other people for their opinions. People who overreact to opinions that are NOT rude or insulting are the ones with problems.
The person I dislike is a celebrity. I won't say who because it might give away my identity. She throws fits and punches people. She's in her 20s and she's not a mature adult. She gets away with everything, no one else does. She seems like a crybaby but I could be wrong. I talk about my problems but to vent and shit, not for sympathy. Maybe she does the same and it was wrong of me to assume otherwise. First impressions aren't always right...wish my mother realised that.
If you ask who it is and I tell you, please don't defend her. I'm trying to forget she exists. Well unless she gets her greasy paws on my fav bloke lol but I doubt. But anyway do you understand? Being rude is NOT the same as expressing an opinion.
People can be rude whilst expressing their opinions, opinions can be rude and sometimes people don't mean to be rude but do so through expression of an opinion, I'm not persisting if you'd rather not say, just wondering to who it would be, I'm in agreement with you please don't take it as me trying to argue a case with you!
how many people need to contradict themselves on here?
