This is very true @danedwards :c)

The thing is that even when somebody says something completely objectionable, one needs to realize that such presents a challenge and a mission. To tackle the statement (not the person) head-on.

Even outlandish or inferior perspectives on a matter serve to better one's understanding of the matter in question. Demonstrating (preferably through logic) that putting one's finger in a flame will burn and hurt is a legitimate way of determining or underlining the non-viability of that path.

Unfortunately people do lose their jobs and even their lives over perspectives posed, both inferior and superior.

Thank you for the upvote and comment!
