It's an opinion... but there is still a somewhat rough sort-of-consensus. It's not what you say; it's how you say it. It's how you treat other people.

> Your disdain for people who disagree with you says nothing about them and a great deal about you.

You totally miss the point. It's not that they say things that people disagree with. It's that they're being a jerk. And then, often, when they get booted, they say "you censor people who disagree!" No, we don't. We get rid of jerks because they're being jerks, not because of their ideas.

>It's that they're being a jerk.

People define others whose opinions they don't share as "being a jerk" when they're just saying something they don't like, all the time.
