It's not about not liking extreme opinions. What I don't like is when people minimize, over simplify or exaggerate opposing views in ways that don't reflect the actual debate that is happening or the views being expressed. I don't think that's healthy debate.

Yeah i get it, but even if they had done it a year earlier I think they could have extracted more value.
