Some observations:
*It's shia who in their private meetings curse Omer, Usman, Abu-Bakr & Aisha. There are plenty of examples on youtube for. But one acquaintance on mine alleged that we sunnis curse Ali in our private meetings. When I refuted her she siad , NOOO baita you don't know, they do curse Ali in private meetings. I told her that I attend various mosque & that she was grossly misinformed. But she was firm in her (false) belief.
*I worked with a shia, & during discussion he uttered that Ali split the moon in half... I was like WHATtttt??? He immediately realized he was talking to a Suni & tried to change topic. I insisted that he tell me more on what he just said. He said I won't understand & that was complicated...!!!
*Shia believe (as do some brailvis) that ppl in grave can hear when they pray to them... Even though Quran & Hadees is more than clear that they don't(even if shaheed).

Earlier on this thread sb claimed that those(Shia) who curse certain Sahaba are NOT muslim. I disagree.
Shia are misguided & deviated BUT still a muslim. You can say they are committing a sin by cursing those but that does not make them a non-Muslim.
Even Ahmadis are muslims though misguided\deviated from original. Wahabis are also misguided\gone-overboard on many things but that does not make a non-muslim.
Prophet himself defined who a muslim is(see end of post). Anyone who believes in & worship God alone, Day of judgement, prophets, holy books, angels, offers prayers, fast, & pay charity is a muslim. Unless someone breaks these rules they remain a muslim.
They can be a lying-muslim,,, a stealing-muslim, a perverted-muslim, a misguided-muslim, a lazy-muslim, but still a Muslim. We must talk to them with evidence & ask them to bring their evidence rather than labeling them a non-Muslim. Like with shia colleague I mentioned I argued with evidence & I made him "THINK" & re-consider on few of the things & he appreciated that I showed him
evidence from Quran that he hadn't heard of before.

Narated By Abu Huraira : One day while Allah's Apostle was sitting with the people, a man(Gabriel in form of a man) came to him walking and said, "O Allah's Prophet. What is Belief(Eman)?" The Prophet said, "Belief is to believe in Allah, His Angels, His Books, His Apostles, and the meeting with Him, and to believe in the Resurrection." The man asked, "O Allah's Apostle What is Islam?" The Prophet replied, "Islam is to worship Allah and not worship anything besides Him, to offer prayers perfectly, to pay the (compulsory) charity i.e. Zakat and to fast the month of Ramadan." The man again asked, "O Allah's Apostle What is Ihsan (i.e. perfection or Benevolence)?" The Prophet said, "Ihsan is to worship Allah as if you see Him, and if you do not achieve this state of devotion, then (take it for granted that) Allah sees you." The man further asked, "O Allah's Apostle When will the Hour be established?"...
