Tim Burton: The internet makes me quite depressed

I think that thinking someone is a "nut" is an extreme position that should done very rarely. "Everyone seems crazy when you don't understand their point of view."

It's supportable to say that you strongly disagree with someone's worldview, but that alone doesn't make them a nut.

I mentioned that in a sibling comment, however I think overt racism crosses into the “nut” territory.

I get what you're saying, but I disagree that overt racism all by itself means the racist is crazy. I strongly disagree with the stance and think that it's immoral and idiotic, but not necessarily crazy.

This is getting into uselessly-pedantic-at-best territory.
