I Accept Your Opinion Even If I Do Not Agree

I posted on a group within an app I use, asking whether or not the group members think a certain topic is racist. Whether they said yes or no did not matter, I just wanted to hear their opinion. And I got some pretty good answers from both points of views!

Then came the sensitive people.

They accused me of trying to start an argument when I clearly said I was simply curious in my post and then it was deleted from the group.

I think people should feel free to express whatever they think on my posts so long as the answer is related to my question, and I don't think my post should have gotten deleted when I was just asking a simple question.

But then again, I should have known better. The majority of users on that app are people who don't like to discuss and debate about anything without:

1.) feeling attacked
2.) insulting others for having a different opinion, or;
3.) blocking you even though you didn't insult them, you just disagree with them

I think they kind of ruined things for everyone who gave their honest opinion. Everyone just wanted to share what was on their minds but that was taken away from them in just a few short minutes.

Oh well. What's happened has happened and there's no fixing it!

There are more and more people like that it seems. Anybody who disagrees with them must be EVIL as far as they are concerned. It is immature

@GoodoldBob Exactly. A person can learn so much through discussions and debates. We get to learn what people think and why, learn something new, perhaps change our minds or if we don't, that's good too! No harm from sharing thoughts at all :)
