OK, this is how I feel about life in the CR (and elsewhere). NOT EVERYBODY has to like us, agree with us, date us, hire us, even TALK to us. We will win some and lose some. Some people will have a dialogue with us, because they are genuinely interested in our point of view. Some will say, their opinion in the only valid one, so they prefer not to waste their time hearing yours.
This is an anonymous forum, albeit one where we have developed a community of “friendship.” Though, to my knowledge, I have not met any of you IRL, I have come to know you (to a limited degree) through your posts, both in style and content. I think most of us enjoy that relationship, so we tend to forget there are real people with real feelings who still might feel hurt, even by anonymous posters. IMO, no one should leave a group because someone disagrees with them, or has a different hashkafa. But neither should we express our disagreement in insulting terms. I hope I have never done that.
