but I just can't find it in myself to rage against things said in ignorance and privilege but without malicious intent.

I agree, to an extent. There is no way to judge intent - innocuous words may hide deep-seated hatred, horrible words may be completely insincere - and because of that I prefer to save my rage until the person either digs their grave deeper or drops the shovel and recants. I don't like the tendency to leap at someone whose mouth (or fingers) moved faster than their brain one time, as it almost always makes a bad situation worse and most people doing the leaping weren't even the ones insulted.

That said, I've spent a lot of time among jackasses (and been one), both malicious and well-meaning, and no matter how patient you are, it's very frustrating getting any of them to say anything but "hee-haw". So I understand why eventually people just start screaming at the outset.

Yes, definitely there are limits. I give people time, but sometimes there isn't any time to give. Like, my mother (who I've come out to) continuously tells me to just ignore things like Santorum and his ilk spouting such hateful things, but she never seems to get that I see no reason to respect someone who thinks I am so depraved and obviously has no respect for me and other LGBTQ people/POC/etc. But if it looks/sounds like an ignorant but innocent mistake, then yes, I'll hold my tongue. But if it goes farther, no, I will get angry.
