So wait til they start killing people openly before we identify their ideology as dangerous?

You illustrate my point. Whether or not an ideology is dangerous is besides the point.

You're blocked

That's how the left exercises "tolerance" towards those of opposing views. Again, you illustrate my point.

No, you don't, but at that point you are no longer truly "tolerant."

When you can't argue the point, attack the man.

The issue with the tolerance paradox is it gives way to thuggery once those with the most power decide what their idea of "tolerance" will and will not actually tolerate. That's why we have a Bill of Rights. Call it intolerant, but name something that actually tolerates more (not just "progressive" or anarchist vlaues).

If the left wants to be intolerant of a given group, that's a fine, debatable position to have. In that case, however, it's intellectually dishonest to refer to such a position as "tolerant."

If "tolerance" tolerates intolerance, then who decides what is "tolerance" and "intolerance?"

Just admit who you don't like and whose rights you want suppressed. Clearly the left has a problem with certain groups of people or they wouldn't be beating up demonstrators of opposing ideals in an unprovoked manner.

I ought to report this post for violating the rules. It's not an unpopular opinion. 👍🏻

Worked and paid taxes since I was 15. Veteran. Would have been nice if the government paid $300/night for a hotel room for me when I was homeless instead of leaving me to exhaust my 401(k)...
