This is actually an accurate portrayal of many people who call themselves ‘tolerant’ and left I’ve found on the internet unfortunately. Too many people only tolerate people with the same opinions as them, and think free speech should only apply to those with their own views.
Yep. Tribalism is present and the “other” is always immoral, evil and deranged. I cite this as a reason why so many elections are lost. An echochamber that powers itself, when confronted / asked about policies going “I don’t need to explain this is common sense”

Well yeah, i don’t tolerate racist, if that makes me intolerant, so be it.
Having a conversation about whether or not people have a right to exist is already me tolerating someone I hate.
I enjoy looking at things from different points of view. It helps me understand the big picture, and know thy enemy.
From a liberal perspective this is obviously a statement on the conservative movement to deny the LGBT movement.

Whether you post this in a left-leaning echo chamber or a right-leaning echo chamber, it will generate the appropriate echo chamber response.
Nuance generating black & white thinking, if you will.
We can debate about of the lights being on or off in the room, but one side is inherently right.
Another statement that when made in an echo chamber will be taken to mean the side of that chamber is right.
You’re assuming I’m only taking one point of view to discount everything I’ve said. What do you say to the nazis about their pov?
Taxes on the rich are good a good thing, here’s why = “you are in your echo chamber”
Doesn’t make what you’re saying wise, just boring
I think maybe you’re assuming I’m the first person that replied to you.
Ah yes
“with the same opinions as them”
This is hilarious. No it’s with the opinion that we should all treat each other well.
Why should anyone treat u well if u prove you’re a shit person who treats others badly?
I’m guessing your “differing opinion” Is something like “blacks cause most of the crime” or “globalists”
