I'll agree to that, but it also leads to the catch-22 that's the basic foundation of the paradox. The problem inhabeneith it is that this is purely subjective. We can all agree that we know which segment of society is intolerant, but in the reality they live in, they view us as intolerant of their way of life (as vice versa). While we know we are right, they believe (know) they are right. And then it boils into a feud where each particular group elects or appoints a given leader/government to enforce their worldview, including consequences for digression, and it all devolves into tribalistic battles and war.
Most people on either side of the political aisle are typically not as incidiary as their more vocal minorities, they'd just assume go.about their lives. As a society, we must encourage the broader population to not give in to this petty bickering and inflammatory conduct, and advocate for live and let live, as well as deal with situations of intolerance on an individual basis as opposed to large groups or segments of the population. Comments stating that groups don't deserve freedom do nothing but fan the flames, and remember that those morons get off on that kind of crap, and they will be the first to scream oppression and retaliate.
