I was sort of asking another poster, who thinks anyone else's opinion can be dismissed because it's an opinion.

Not meant as a personal attack at all. My attempt in trying to point to the seemingly ever increasing reliance on opinion base interpretations. Followed by then the reactions when confronted to factual reality information.
Believing in more about feelings of it is true over what is the painful truth evident yet overlook even ridiculed.

Lest you forget...everything on this or any other forum is opinion. "Bibi is a fascist" is an opinion. Its an opinion I happen to agree with, but is still an opinion as is "Trump is a malignant narcissist." Which is a clinical opinion that I agree with.
It's cold outside is an opinion. It's raining outside is an opinion depending on where one is standing.
"Nothing exists except atoms and empty space; everything else is opinion." - Democritus. Turns out Democritus' understanding of physics was flawed, but hopefully you get the point. Facts and truth are exceedingly rare.
All we are doing here is spewing opinions, which are based on, and supported by...somebody else's opinion. Unless it's one of whell's or zero's opinions, which are based on clinically disorganized thinking.

Its an opinion. I'm uncertain without additional research, if it's an opinion that I share, that I share partially, or that I would dismiss. Got it?

Don, is there a philosophical heading/description for this?

Policy analysis is always an opinion, however. Opinions are always in dispute. Without going into a long policy analysis or Benjamin Netanyahu's policy statements or policy decisions, I will say that I'm sure I agree with some smidgen of what comes spewing forth out of Bibi's festering piehole...and I dismiss the rest.
Got it?

Heres an opinion of mine...when considering the last 15 years of this country's history, any US citizen who casts a vote for any Republican politician for any public office, no matter how obscure, is an asshole. Vote for a Republican for dog catcher...you’re an asshole.

I would only comment that coming across any actual factual reality information is exceedingly rare.

STONEWALL JACKSON was outraged. His entire body shook in anger as he looked around him at the destruction that had been done to the city of Fredericksburg. Dr. McGuire, who was seldom far from Jackson’s side, shook his head in revulsion. “What can we do about this, General?”
Jackson’s voice trembled. “Kill 'em, kill 'em all !"

Here's my opinion on what Israeli policy should be vis-a-vis Hamas...
Kill 'em. Kill 'em all.
I suspect my opinion on this is similar to Benjamin Netanyahu's opinion.
PS - this is the same opinion I have of the three guys (and any of their white supremacist christian racist brethren in this country) who dragged James Byrd Jr, who was still alive and conscious, down a back road of Jasper Texas behind their F-150 until his body fell apart. I say, kill 'em all.

Certain opinions like current climate change causes, innocents suffering and lose of life in Israel and Gaza. Hamas was wrong to act as they did and stopped from ever again acting so. Israel has issues with treatment and expansion into areas.
When faced overwhelming evidence, scientific documentation, pictures, video, testimony ongoing events. Arguing over what happened for personal feelings only prolongs any growth forward in our success as a species.
