Opinion of Tolerance

[SWE]

The idea that bigoted ideas are worthy of tolerance is dangerous idiocy

[TNF]

Horrible Concept. While I obviously don't support the state cracking down on Klansmen and other ne'er dowells, I certainly support them having their bones broken by private citizens.

[Antonio the Sixth]

Overrated, though still better than the main alternatives.

[Yeahsayyeah]

Not to split some skull over each difference of opinion is an obvious freedom concept. It has its limits, of course.

[PJ]

Depends on what it's tolerance of: different races, religions, sexualities, absolutely. People are under no obligation to tolerate hateful ideologies, however.

[JohnRM]

There should be no tolerance for those advocating violence or intimidation, either openly or behind closed doors, to achieve their goals; or, of course, if their goals are violence and/or intimidation. If you can have an honest debate with your peers and peacefully accept the outcome when you lose, then I should think there wouldn't be a problem. Both the left and the right seem to have a serious problem with the intimidation part lately. They need to get their heads screwed on correctly.

[Unconditional Surrender Truman]

Depends on what you mean by "tolerance". If we're talking about the right to respectfully disagree, then it's obviously a freedom concept; saying that people are obligated to tolerate openly aggressive discrimination, however, is just plain dumb.

[Xing]

If you mean tolerance of those who are different, then obviously FC, though sometimes tolerance isn't enough. I don't think we should be tolerant of discrimination, though.
