Of course not. The opinion of a person with more knowledge, education or experience on the relevant topic should be ebtitled to more weight than the opinion of someone who is ignorant like SJG or immature like chessmaster.

Of course not. Informed opinion carries much more weight than uninformed if one is trying to make a decision on an issue. The only thing useful about an uninformed opinion is what ignorant people think about the subject, and unless the subject deals with a vast amount of ignorant people, I wouldn't put much stock in it. Maybe in politics uninformed opinion counts since Trump is certainly benefiting from it, but in most of life it's always better to have trusted, informed people counseling you. Not raving idiots.

Not a chance. Look at this country full of Kardashian worshipping idiots. None of their opinions should mean a fucking thing.

Of course not. Case in point: SJG.

We would not have an Electoral College if they all count equally. This opinion defines the difference between a Republic and a Democracy.

Exactly why nothing you say matters sport.

Hate to be the one to break the news to you, lol.

Well I could have called you fuckhead or dick breath or faggot or moron, but I thought I would cut you a little slack. But once again you prove that you're too oblivious. Just sip some more Kool Aid and go back to your imaginary utopia.

You and Trump must be long lost brothers. You use words with an equal skill level.

IMO when a person's opinion brings harm to others, either physically, psychologically or economically, then their opinion is not only of lesser weight, but potentially dangerous as well.

If informed opinions carry more weight, why aren't votes for democrats discounted?

Sometimes even the same opinion is not equally valid. You could support Bernie Sanders because you think a higher minimum wage because will have very limited harmful effects due to macroeconomic factors. You could support Bernie Sanders because you want everything to be free and he'll make a good start. With opinions, the road taken is as important as the destination.

No. Opinions are opinions, not facts.

Facts have validity.

Opinions may or may not have merit, be logical, substantiated or agreeable.
