    Tolerance doesn’t exist for groups that are naturally intolerant, it’s hilarious that they expect to be treated differently than they’ve sued and abused the system to be allowed to do to others

      It’s called the paradox of tolerance. This graphic explains it pretty well:

        Tolerance is not a paradox, it’s a contract. Either you follow the contract by tolerating others or you break the contract and can’t complain when you are no longer covered by it.

        Tolerance is not a moral trait, despite how the right tries to portray it as one. Tolerance is part of the social contract, if one side is intolerant, they’ve broken the social contract and abdicated any claim for the rules of society to apply to them.

          I always saw it as like a ceasefire, They break it then we start shooting. Because to me “I tolerate you” doesn’t mean that I like you or have you in good regards. Go tell someone you love “I tolerate you” and I’m pretty sure you are gona have a lengthy conversation.
