There was no disrespect aimed at her that I could see.
One of the reasons non-Catholic Christians are not loving Mary, and honoring her, for saying "yes," as the Catholics do, is because they'd then be led to be Catholics themselves, and few anti-Catholic-type Christians would ever allow that to happen. So they treat Mary's import with disdain; and that is disrespectful. She's the mother of Jesus; God chose her. That should be good enough for every believer to be forever grateful [to both Him and to her].

Here you indulge in a form of wholesale mind-reading & attributing of motives to others, as if you had some special insight into their hearts and minds despite what is plainly and simply enough said by many of them as to their own motivations, side-stepping those as if you truly knew them better than they know themselves, your own doing so in continuance of the generalized mischaracterization and false allegations which you first began with, that prompted my own initial comment to you in the first place.

There is bit of unfinished business we should address before moving on to this new aspect or iteration of your initial claim as to motivations of others.

When or if there can be any comments found which do in fact express open "disrespect" for Mary, please feel free to point those out to me more precisely where that has occurred.

If that cannot be done, then admit it, and we could then more freely move on.
