What puzzles me most is not that everybody has an opinion (I worked that out years ago) but those opinions are so absolute, set in concrete and non-negotiable. And one-sided. I think probably social media is partly to blame for enabling idiotic statements and vile insults without the fear of an accompanying smack in the nose, but why is there no grey area in this discussion?

I don’t know why this hasn’t occurred to more people, but a bit from Column A and a bit from Column B would appear to be a valid point of view. But it just doesn’t seem to compute with the type of people who type in CAPITALS and refuse to see anything but their own side of an argument.
