      How dare someone have an opinion on a topic informed by how it will personally impact them.

      They should just pick a stance based on vibes alone or just do what you want. That would be easier

          And that would have been a very valid point to raise. It’s a good point even, but just a blanket statement of judgement because someone has an opinion informed by their circumstances is unproductive
