    You seem genuinely oblivious to how intolerant you are.

    As though you have a list of “social crimes” and when you, being the judge and jury, find someone guilty of being intolerant they’re green lit to be “untolerated”.

    This is exactly what I was talking about when I said that the paradox of tolerance is mostly used as justification for not tolerating people you personally deem to be intolerant.

      If protecting the innocent from evil that will exploit them for its own gain makes me a bad person, then I just guess I’ll see you in hell, motherfucker.

          Ah, excellent, we’ve fallen all the way to ad hominem now. I already knew that you didn’t know what you were talking about but it’s always fun when you continue speaking long enough to remove all doubt.

          This conversation is over, and I wish you a long happy life seeing all the ways you are wrong. We will not speak again. History will speak for me.

            God that’s cringey. Do you practice that in the mirror? “We will not speak again. History will speak for me.” What does that even mean?

            History will probably confirm that Americans on both sides of the political divide have become less tolerant, and find silly ways to justify their intolerance while being completely unable to acknowledge their own shortcomings.

            My comment isn’t a personal attack. I was trying to demonstrate the problem with you using the paradox of intolerance as an excuse to be intolerant. While you’re using the paradox to be intolerant of out-group, out-group is doing the same to you.
