    Look up the paradox of tolerance. In order to be tolerant, you must be intolerant of intolerance.

      ok. lets just round up all the intolerant people and re-educate them until they are tolerant like we are.

      because it’s totally cool fo us tolerant people to be fascists, as long as we are eliminating fascism!

        Hey man, I’m just sharing the philosophical concept of what happens when a society is tolerant of everyone.

        https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance

        No one is suggesting that only fascism can prevent fascism. It’s the ‘right to refuse service’ when people are being an asshole, and you have to exercise that right when people go too far. There have to be some consequences for being intolerant in order to maintain a tolerant society.

          No one where? Here?

          Where I live in liberal leftie land… people are 100% often totally for facism, as long as it’s targeted at the ‘right’ people. And ironically, also they all bend over backwards to accommodate assholes as long as have a minority identity, because you know, it’s perfectly ok to treat people like shit because you’re categorically oppressed.

          And in the few spaces that are generally open to everyone… they get shit on by these same supposed tolerant people, becuse these spaces are not ‘safe’ if the evil bad majority is allowed into them.

          It’s pure insanity. Largely fueled by nitwits who have no experience with genuine oppression and tell me I’m an asshole when I tell them my stories of genuine racist and sexism, because it makes them ‘uncomfortable’. lol
