Believing people don’t deserve respect because of their beliefs is what leads to violence and dehumanization in every society

It depends. But there are some political ideologies that love to house people that deserve no respect

Is that really necessary? Respecting others doesn’t mean giving them time of day, being friends, agreeing, or even understanding them. Respecting them is showing them human decency. Treating them as a person. Acknowledging they have feelings and value.

respect has the dual meaning of showing either human decency, or admiration/deference. often this ambiguity is used to accuse people of “disrespect” when they don’t show deference. I think it’s a fair question
