The topmost and the most lethal misconception about Islam is that there are many sects/divisions among Islam (shia/sunni bullshit etc). All those who follow Islam are followers of Prophet (PBUH) and the word of God (Quran), period.

Have to contradict you there,
 
"My Ummah will be fragmented into seventy-three (73) sects. All of them will be in Hell Fire except one sect. They (the Companions) said: Allah's Messenger, which is that? Whereupon he said: It is one to which I and my companions belong". [Tirmidhi. 171]

Tolerance and unity is essential in all circumstances. Here is another Hadith, the source of which I forgot (sorry)

Support your Muslim brothers in all circumstances, even if they are Zalim. Sahabas asked "Why if they are Zalim?". Prophet (PBUH) replied: To correct and mend their ways.

You know the different sects Shia, sunni, wahabi etc?

For one thing, they all believe in and follow the 5 pillars of Islam: Imaan, Prayer, Hajj, Fasting and Charity. They all believe in Mohammad (PBUH). So, why are there differences? If you study them deeply, you'd find that the differences are over petty things. Still, these petty things are made a mole out of a hill and fight ensues due to this.

However, this does not apply to Kharijites and Ahmadi sects which are obviously non-muslims as they believe in prophets after Mohammad (PBUH) and believe in declaring "muslims as non muslims" and waging war against muslims.

By that Hadith, the Prophet (PBUH) did not point to any one "SECT" (Sunni/shia etc). He pointed out to a common belief - obeying Muhammad PHUH and Allah, whichever the so-called "sect" is.

Yes, they are the Ummah of Prophet PBUH, the only difference lays in their interpretation of Islam.

I pointed out this hadith to you since you said

Okay, if someone says "I'm a sunni" or "I'm a Shia", doesn't it propagate the misconception that "sectarianism is a part of  Islam"?

The reality is, there is no sect or divide within Islam, only man-made rubbish.

I'm wondering how you say this when the prophet PBUH himself had said there'd be a division of his Ummah into 73 sects.

The misconception is not that there are no sects but the misconception is in OUR minds which ended up in having different sects (sunni, shia)

Iluvme: Prophet (PBUH) said that cause he knew that we people will divide up islam in sects even though it shouldnt be divided.
The hadith doesnt at all implies that having sects is the right thing. (I know, you never said that its right)
