@Deedsnotwords you're in the wrong place if you want people to show respect to each other. Markets are a 'meeting place' for people with their various (and competing) interests and perceptions come into conflict. When you throw money into the mix, these things are exacerbated.
You choose to hold? That's your decision, and I hope it works for you (but it certainly won't for others). I personally take no issue with people expressing their honestly-held and evidence-based views. I'm more annoyed at people who engage is useless conspiracy theories about the role of Market Makers (MMs) and their role in investment exchanges. In the last week, I've seen far too many instances of people attributing drops in SP to the actions of MMs; not only is doing so wrong, it damages the functioning of the market, preventing it from working effectively.
