I like many people who voted for Madoff Clinton, but I have ZERO respect for their political critical thinking skills.
Conservatives are way more tolerant than leftists.
At my age, we don’t call it intolerance. We call it cantankerous! Now, GET OFF MY LAWN!
“Conservatives are way more tolerant than leftists.”
And therein lies the problem.
Years ago I was at a neighborhood gathering. One of my Liberal neighbors was ranting and raving --
"We need to take away all the guns! We need to shut down corporations that pollute! We need to make nuclear power illegal! We need make coal illegal!"
I walked up and said that these policies would likely have a lot of unpleasant unintended consequences.
"You!" she spat, "You're a Republican! You're the problem! You just want to control everything!"
I said, "Sounds like you want to control everything. I'm a Conservative. I just want to be left alone."
She stormed off.
Not much tolerance there.
“Whatever differences we have, tolerating the opinions of another is a prerequisite to a functioning and free society.”
But it is supposed to be a two way street.To tolerate another’s opposing views is one thing but that’s not what democrats want. They demand that you submit to their views (ie turn in your guns, Obamacare etc) or else YOU are the one who is intolerant. F ‘em.
So, You Think You’re Tolerant?

No I do not think that. Not for one minute. I am INTOLERANT.
I do not tolerate and accept the sins and evils of wicked liberals and democrats. I will not acquiesce and accept the hateful and devious policies they set forth.
Which party founded the “Resistance?” Just saying.
Tolerance is the virtue of believing in nothing.
I’m completely tolerant.....
I hate everyone equally.....
You are correct. And to the extent that Democrats have made these demands, we no longer have much of a “functioning and free society”.
Tolerance is the virtue of believing in nothing.
____________________________________________________
Well said. And I might add.....
Tolerance is the virtue of ACCEPTING ANYTHING.
If you don’t stand for something you’ll fall for anything.
You are right on.
We should tolerate the people, but not their errors against the good. And there is a difference between good and evil, which is observable by those of sound mind.
