Oh my god, I am stunned by the hypocrisy and lack of self-awareness here. So you think the right is obsessed with identity? Get the fuck out of here. I've seen the contempt the left has for any conservative minority. They feel entitled to black or female votes.
The "left identity" is wanting everyone to have healthcare and education to struggle less. The "right identity" is quite loudly screaming about hurting the people they don't like.
"The paradox of tolerance states that if a society's practice of tolerance is inclusive of the intolerant, intolerance will ultimately dominate, eliminating the tolerant and the practice of tolerance with them."
There is no paradox. Tolerance is a social contract which includes the tolerant. If someone is intolerant, they break the contract and are therefore not included in it.
If you tolerate intolerance, intolerance will rule. It's literally a paradox by definition.

Lol, this reductionist shit is dumb no matter who does it. Fastest or not. Though ~~then~~ them fastests really fucking love it.
Are you trying to say fascist?
Trying?
They're referring to this, I think. If you were typing via smartphone, your autocorrect done ducked you.
I was also doing the ducking bit.
Not entitled, just surprised when people vote for anyone who openly hates them and wants to take away their rights.
When a lot of people that like that certain people are getting hurt and also don’t believe they won’t become the targets later.
