It doesn’t bother me.
Two aspects of your original statement puzzled me so I thought it worthwhile putting a challenge in.
The first was use of word “terrified” in regard to some one having an opinion challenged. I have never ever seen that. I have occasionally seen anger, often defensiveness, very often indifference. But never terror.
The second was your notion that only old white men exhibit a closed mind. Having worked with many people from many different backgrounds...I think it’s simply a human characteristic rather than just displayed by old white men.
