As the author notes, one can still believe and strive for certain values -- without being caught up in the outrage culture that is consuming our happiness from the inside. We can only do that by choosing to respect others and allowing them to live their own lives according to their own beliefs and values. It's OK if they choose differently.
This feels the same to me as former gm (generous mother) 1970's union folks sledgehammering a Toyota on national news. Todays gm(government motors) has altered culture to incorporate quality and customers. Using outrage, guilt, fear, tribal passions to make dumb decisions feel inevitable. Bad economic practice, fatal for personal finances, banal evil at the political level.
Excellent article. But you are preaching to the choir. When leftists follow Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals and the communist manifesto, Human Respect is not considered for one moment. The left feigns respect in the name of “civil rights,” all the while violating the basic rights of anyone who disagrees with their inane logic. No one should simply hide behind their device and complain, or state their views, unless they are willing to DO something about it and take responsibility for their words, and more importantly, their actions. That goes for both sides of the proverbial aisle.
I agree, but the left is going to do what they're going to do. It's abhorrently obvious that conversation is not something they are open to. Disconnect from the borg cube and strive to enjoy these last few breaths before the inevitable.

The real trouble is "showing" this isn't simply part of the political agenda to a country that is connected only by fed news.
To give a truth is to lie.
