The people who have brought about this kind of ultra intolerance of anything they find remotely offensive are the same ones who blow their own trumpets proclaiming how wonderfully tolerant they are.
To bring in their ideal utopia of tolerance (they hypocritically rationalize) a lot eggs and lives must be broken to terrorize anyone who does not instantly obey their orders of how to live.
