Are you respectful of other people's point of view even if you don't agree with it?

I'm respectful of other people...or at least that's my aspiration. However, I am not respectful of points of view which think it's ok to commit terrorism justified by religion or other ideology, or are misogynistic, or in any other way seek to justify hurtful behaviour.

Discussion can still be civil, but not necessarily respectful of the points put forward.

Most of the time about most things. But some opinions don't deserve respect. If someone's opinion is that harm should come to people I care about, I'm going to get testy.

Opinions matter. Every human force in the world that affects us started as an opinion. You wanna say something to me, be prepared for a response.

Yea, even if I don't agree with them. One person finds ridiculous, another person may find perfectly reasonable. Also, I might gain a better understanding of others' perspectives and work towards finding common ground. Unless otherwise they are being harmful, then I would challenge them with my opinion but still with empathy and respect.
Not always. Sometimes there's a time to stand up.

For the most part yeah I collect perspectives.

I try. I really do. But the best I can do is give the same amount of respect I'm given.

I do as long as it stays respectful, then I won’t argue, just shut it down.

Always unless/until they disrespect me
As long as they keep it civil and educated.

It depends if their point of view is harmful or harmless.
Automated bot accounts are not people even with faked or stolen human avatars, however those stolen images will be identified as such eventually

Not if it's insane.
