So, its not a matter about one side being right or another wrong, it is a democratic right to hold an opinion and not be chastised for doing so

Bull****. Freedom of speech gives us all a right to an opinion but it does not make that opinion or us beyond reproach. Brexiters are allowed their opinion and I'm allowed to call them out on their utter insanity. That is how freedom of speech works, it is a two way street.
If a decision impacts everyone you can't call any outcry against that decision undemocratic, what you are arguing for is actually really ****ing undemocratic since you're essentially are arguing for silencing the opposition through centrism and false equivalency.
Your centrism in this issue is nothing more than wilful blindness.
