First, banning you over having that opinion was wrong. I disagree with you on some points, but isn't that the point of a community/forum/wherever you were banned from? The whole HP fandom isn't like this. I hope that's not what you came away with.

I think Snape was... complicated. He saw her as the exception, not the rule. And this is implied to be the case anyway - most DEs are halfblood, implying they have a muggleborn mother or father. They can't all hate their families - rather, they said "well, but Dad's different from the others." Or perhaps they hated muggles and NOT muggleborns - Snape does dismiss Petunia as being "just a muggle" at some point (or something to that effect), which said to me that he didn't care about Lily's blood status, but Petunia was just a muggle, period.

Anyway, we don't know what happened to Snape between Hogwarts and when he stopped being a DE. It's possible as he turned from Lily, his "views" changed, and he was able to buy into things he might not have bought into before. Then Lily came up specifically, and he went into "oh shit" mode, remembering his once dear friend/crush.

Somehow I doubt that the OP was banned for the opinion, but more the way they argued that opinion instead.

You'd be surprised. Not all of HP fandom is that way, but it's definitely got its pockets, and the fans that have "their precious" characters can be brutally obsessive and hyper-defensive.
