usual reason innit
errr ... with some ease
just because its an opinion does not make it valid; some opinions have a greater founding in truth, evidence and logic than others and only one opinion can be correct in the end. Thus some opinions can be bullshit.

Well, I could say "In my opinion, Spaniards are covertly controlling the weather"
and that would be bullshit.

saying "my opinion is that your opinion is bullshit" is an opinion

in fact your all wrong
he prefixed what he said with in my opinion, so all he is stating is that he has that opinion. Irt all becomes bullshit if he doesn't hold that fact to be true.

stating
it wouldn't be as it's prefixed as in my opnion. what he is claiming that he has an opinion that spaniards control the weather.. it's only bullshit if he doesn't actually believe that.

I suppose it comes down to if you read 'bullshit' as
a deliberate falsehood
something that's incorrect.

I suppose
it could be ridiculous.. but to the person..they wouldn't see it as biullshit... as it's their opinion so we are in another hellishly subjective squandry of neichzian proportions.

You're saying that ideas - existing by themselves - are all of equal value
until thought about by humans, is that it?
Or are you saying that a private opinion is likely to remain of value to the person holding it regardless of valid criticism?

no
i'm saying that everyone is entitled to their opinion. that all opinions are valid, and cannot be dismissed as bullshit.
acting on those opinions, or building a system of beliefs however can be.

By valid, do you mean "equally true"
or do you mean "equally of value to the holder"?
