No the lack of tolerance allows it to grow. If they were able to do it in public where it’s called out then it wouldn’t grow.
Instead it exists in echo chambers that cannot be countered.
What? They're literally doing it in public now, and it's clearly making everything worse. The world was a better place when these people were properly shamed back into the holes they came out of.
calling it out is part of not tolerating it though. If they are always called out, they will begin to hide it.
Okay... who are "they"?
Intolerant people.
Intolerant to whom or what?
This is a generalized discussion, it’s not aimed at any one group.
Ok. So we are back to square one: tolerance is a pact: I tolerate from people who also tolerate . Whoever violates this agreement - be ready that I may knock their teeth out and cut out their genital organs. This is how it should be, but way too many people fool themselves into "I must tolerate everything" bullshit
As an intellectual you must tolerate it, as an ape you don’t.
As an intelligent being I will tolerate only what I agreed to
