I give myself the right, as having an opinion. It feels like you're saying that all opinions are equally valid and that we shouldn't strive to critically evaluate and debate things.

While there are different ways to evaluate any given topic, all opinions are not equally valid.

you can have your opinion, but ultimately the question is: do you want me to tell you what you are allowed and what you are not allowed to do with the electricity you PAY for?

you may not like what I do with the power I PAY for but you don't get a say in how I use it.

Yes. Absolutely yes.

There are thousands of things you're not allowed to do with the power you PAY for.
