Of course they are not the same but they share a common principle, i.e. you can not do arbitrary things involving other people. And nobody is talking about your opinions, you are free to think whatever you want, just as you are free to harm yourself or even commit suicide. But if your »thinking« involves information about other people, there are limits just as there are limits if you go from killing you to killing others. If something is ridiculous, then the way you twisted what I said.
