No, you really haven't accurately portrayed the arguments at all, or the people who support any of those things you mentioned, not as a whole at least. You have portrayed your perception of the situation, which is highly skewed and exaggerated.
Either you are going to actually look at things rationally and accept that both sides do what you say, but neither to the level you are portraying it to be, or you weren't going to be a real ally in the first place, just someone looking for an excuse to be against something.
I have accurately portrayed the arguments. You need to look at the situation rationally, rather than in the denial you appear to be satisfied with.
People simply voicing an opinion, or exercising their rights, have been subject to ridicule and professional destruction. Consider the founder and former CEO of Mozilla. He made a donation to a cause he believed in, and was professionally destroyed for doing so. There are 1,000's of examples of this.
