Not being combative: isn't this the argument in FAVOR of SJWs?

No. They'd try to ban the ideas from being expressed.

So then the answer, rather than banning them, would be open disrespect of them and their holders?

Strong criticism of ideas but civility to holders of them. Principles, yes. Tribes, no.pic.twitter.com/zV3vaHqYvO

I don't think I see it expressed that way. Is it laziness... respect="respect the right to express"?
-
I think it is conflation of ideas & people. I see it usually as 'I believe this is true but respect contradictory beliefs."
-
I don't think God exists but respect belief in God. I think Christianity is true but respect Muslim's beliefs. No, you don't.
-
Yes, I do see this. I just chalk it up to people not wanting to offend. But it is irritating. Bad ideas should be challenged.

It was a Christian & an atheist criticising atheists for being critical of Christianity this time but often is re: Islam.

its a misplaced sense that respecting wrong ideas is required to respect people. Toxic conflation of philosophy with identity.

Maybe it's a pathological form of conflict-avoidance?
