Simple math.

Tolerance(+) of intolerance(-) is(=) intolerance(-).
Tolerance(+) of tolerance(+) is(=) tolerance(+).
I love this community so much.
And we love you, buddy <3
That time Spock heard about Daft Punk.
Also called The Paradox of Tolerance, as explained by Karl Popper (one of my favorite philosophers).
Although, as you showed, there are several ways to illustrate that it’s not really a paradox. My favorite is to consider that tolerance is a social contract entered into by every participant; those who are intolerant are breaching that contact and are therefore not protected by it.
The whole “tolerance paradox” can be solved by a very simple fact: Those that seek to break the social contract we all live under do not get afforded the benefits of said social contract.
By the very nature of trying to break/corrupt it you have nullified it for yourself. And until you are willing to abide by it again, you face the same punishment as those that break any of our laws. Your rights restricted, confinement, financial penalties, etc.
That is Popper’s own proposed solution for that paradox: Tolerance is not to be extended to the intolerant.
He suggests trying to work within the bounds of the contract first (talking, reasoning, voting etc.), but if that fails or is impossible endorses the censorship and suppression (violent, if necessary) of the intolerant. Try the high road, but be willing to acknowledge when that road is a dead end and ready to correct course in time.
That take seems too measured for some people, sadly. But it is the right way.
Dax would beat the ass of anyone putting dumbass words like that in her mouth.
