So you are suggesting that your opinion is more correct than other peoples?

Accept there are other views. Challenge them.

Or run away

No, I'm suggesting that some posters are incapable of being civil and staying on topic...

It's not a case of "running away", it's a case of not wasting time with people who resort to insults and petty attempts to antagonise and score points to appease their fragile egos

You havent noticed it comes from 2 sides ?

"Your side" is just as bad

Well there's certainly more from one side than the other...

And once you accept there are 2 sides, your point is moot.

personally I think both sides are equal in poor civility.

But if you only see "the others" as bad, its just confirmation bias

I don't really care what "side" someone is on, I just want people to be civil to each other

When I first started posting on GD I remarked that I was looking for a civilised discussion. One of the regulars told me "You've come to the wrong place". It's probably not possible on boards like this. I very much enjoy what I use it for. I have occasionally experienced the pile on, though, and it is disconcerting.
