Interestingly enough, international waters work by a similar concept. A lot of people think no laws apply in international waters, but that's not the case. Anyone sailing there picks a country whose laws they will follow.
But what happens if you don't pick a flag and just decide you're not going to follow any laws?? Well then you're not protected by any laws either. Your ship can be sunk or seized by anyone and there isn't anything you can do about it because you decided you wanted to exist outside of any laws.
Tolerance works a bit like that. If someone choses to live outside of tolerance and just do what they want to others, then they forfeit their right to be protected by tolerance.
this is a cool fact and a valuable contribution to the conversation thanks homie ☺️
