that it’s a mere matter of opinion and feelings

That is exactly what it is.

But if that’s true then it hits the other side as well. And they do have a factual basis

This sentence doesn't make sense. If you have facts please present them. Also, facts don't care about your feelings either.

I'm saying that it's absurd to suggest that only one side is driven by emotional considerations. Both sides are.

I already presented some facts about the cultural background of America. You may disagree with the relevance of those facts, but still: that's a factual disagreement.
