Everyone is, of course, entitled to their opinion. The frustration lies, however, with #Stans who won’t even *consider* facts which conflict with their narrative! Opinions are subjective. Facts are not. These days, conflating the two is destroying our society! Literally!

If you don’t believe this, look at any of the anti-vaxxer web sites which are killing people under the guise of “free speech”!
In a crowded movie theater, you don’t have the right to shout “FIRE!”. Simultaneously, in a crowded movie theater that’s burning, you don’t have the right to drag people towards the fire while saying “Don’t worry, fire isn’t really dangerous!”
Is seems obvious that fire’s dangerous, and yet, *some* people will believe that and run towards the fire! Some from stupidity, others from anti-establishment beliefs, but they’re gonna get burned regardless of their motivation!
Especially heinous are those who run towards the exits while screaming at their neighbors that fire’s actually not harmful and should be embraced! Their motives are often monetary, but regardless, the people who listen to them still get burned and/or die!
