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.

    That’s why we need big brains like you to tell us what to think!! Ohhh if only I wasn’t but a lowly peon I might possibly be able to grasp that religious oppression isn’t. Yes yes.

    Funny how you deflect to calling people stupid rather then admit to the glaring holes in your position, sorry that’s not the right word. Sad, it’s sad not funny.

    Anyways it’s been fun measuring dicks, but I got you beat, and it looks like you don’t have a response.

    ✌️ Take care.

      I’m not here to tell you how to think, but don’t conflate your ignorance for other people’s knowledge.

      It must suck fighting imaginary enemies. I wish you the best of luck.

          I’m not telling religious people how to think. Anyone can think how they like. It’s how they express themselves that’s the issue, but you knew that, right?
