AIBU to give up mumsnet because of all the ignorant comments?

It seems like every week I come on mn now there's a thread full of ignorant comments about SN. The new one tonight a thread where a poster is complaining about seeing a young boy out for dinner with their family with headphones on.

A few posters came on and raised the point that there could be SN and that's why the boy was wearing headphones, which was greeted by posters actually posting 'sigh, another SN debate' Hmm

Am I just being super sensitive or is it completely unreasonable to not even entertain the opinion of posters raising the issue of SN?

I'm at the point now where I'm thinking of leaving mn for good.

maybe if everyone saw the sn threads as standard then they would understand a bit more or how life is? Just seems a bit odd that you have to opt in to see - we are in the mn closet, no?

Or is it that way because people weren't being nice?
