I’m not sure how voting makes it so we can’t respect each other’s opinions.

Typically this is done by adopting a CoC and then adding things to it that you don't like. But I have seen more hostile methods too.

... Yes. You will have to behave like a civilized adult. If your opinion is that you shouldn't have to, then you are correct that I do not respect that opinion.

I think the whole problem here is that someone's definition of "civilized adult" is different from others. My definition doesn't try to suppress people's opinions, even if I don't like them.
