Toleruleance (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I've found that a good way to check for actual tolerance in a group is how they treat their furries.

Also, the furries make the internet work. plz. I need the furry hacking power in the world.

I mean that's just the "paradox of tolarence" solved issue. we ain't tolerant of intolerance

I read a decent rebuttal to the "paradox" of tolerance. To summarize for those that don't know, the idea is that tolerance is a social contract. You tolerate everyone that's behaving according to the contract. Refusing to tolerate someone that has broken the contract isn't a violation of the contract; it's required in order to enforce the contract.

You break the rules, you lose the protections. Simple as.

My retort to the tolerance paradox is to say "L, deal with it" to bigots who bring it up as a gotcha.
