Calling a belief or argument nonsensical doesn't have anything to with dignity. Nonsensical isn't personal. Singling out and holding down a minority of our population for something they were born with is taking away their dignity at best.

Ever since social media brought everyone into political/social discussions I notice people struggle with these distinctions more than anything out there. It's baffling to me how people can't see the difference between criticizing beliefs and opinions and criticizing and singling out groups of people for things they were born with.

I simply can't see how our society got to this point, how do so many struggle with simple distinctions and equate things that shouldn't be equated? If it was just a few people it would be one thing, but it seems society at large has really lost the plot, or I guess never had the proper understanding in the first place.

It's incredible.
