No — we’ve just taken Ethics 102 as well, so we understand good intentions don’t entail positive outcomes, therefore you may need to criticize or oppose people who state good intentions to bring about good outcomes.

Insulting and demeaning people for that, rather than engaging their arguments in good faith, is a breach of ethics.
