And anyone who says otherwise is either a fool or speaking in bad faith. Tolerance is a social contract where the involved parties agree not to give each other shit over perceived differences. To be intolerant is to opt out of that contract, and thus its protections.

Yep

I find it hilarious when people make the mistake of confusing my patience and tolerance for weakness

I would argue that it's actually our moral duty to punch a bigot in the mouth. I believe that this is one of those rare cases where action IS self-defense

This puts it so well. There are plenty of leftest I could disagree with and sometimes do. But when we are coming from similar ethicis and world view then I can respect it.
