They'll tell you ''we don't have to be tolerant of intolerance!'' (see the first reply to this thread, for example). Of course, to them, ''intolerance'' is pretty much any disagreement with their cultural agenda whatsoever.
A statement or position is not automatically wrong because it strikes leftists as ''intolerant''. Leftists are not the sole arbiters of morality, and there's good reason to be intolerant of their cultural agenda.
This is true, though I understand from a secular humanist worldview why leftists see things the way they do. I reject this paradigm, hence why I disagree with their philosophy.
What makes you equate liberals with leftists? Liberalism, as a moral philosophy is not 'leftist.'
Denying the value of tradition and attempting to demolish all social distinctions and nonsecular sources of authority .. how is that not leftist?
From a right-wing POV, liberalism is leftist. From a left-wing POV, liberalism is rightist.
Hmm...
