Paradox of tolerance - eviltoast

Wiki - The paradox of tolerance states that if a society is tolerant without limit, its ability to be tolerant is eventually ceased or destroyed by the intolerant. Karl Popper described it as the seemingly self-contradictory idea that in order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must retain the right to be intolerant of intolerance.

    When the general society is intolerant of nazis, they are not usually calling for nazis to be killed or harmed.

    And why aren’t we doing that? They’re literally Nazis?

        I do not get why the war against them expired.

        They are wearing and flying the colors of Nazi Germany, they should still be enemies.

            Everyone’s a little bit racist sometimes…

            Doesn’t mean we go around committing hate criiiiimes!

            Ethnic jokes might be uncouth

            But you laugh because they’re based on truth

            Don’t take them as personal attacks

            Everyone enjoys them, so relax

            One day I should actually see the play that song is from…
