> you can think the the beliefs are stupid, but you can still respect them.

I have no idea what you're saying here. What does respecting stupid ideas even look like?

EDIT: I respect people's right to hold and express stupid ideas. That does not mean I cannot discuss, at length and with vigor, how stupid they are, or encourage others to avoid financially supporting the people who hold those stupid ideas. I, too, have the right to free speech.
