I couldn't agree more. I personally see/hear far less of it. Still it is literally jaw dropping when it happens. I'm not great at how to deal with it. I tend to deal with it sarcastically. "Your kidding me, right? You honestly still talk/think that way." If it's someone I know and have a relationship with I have no problem laying into them. "You're a d!ck, what's wrong with you". Not saying that is a good or bad way I just don't know the answer of how to deal with ignorance like that. I suspect there's not a right or wrong way, I think it probably differs for everyone.
