Question: Doesn’t being intolerant of intolerance make you intolerant? So should one tolerate intolerance?
Specifically I would like your thoughts about tolerance of speech - intolerant speech. Not intolerant actions. Merely hateful and intolerant speech.
So if we determine some speech cannot be tolerated, then what happens to “I disagree with what you say but defend to death your right to say it ”?—- and socially who decides what speech cannot be tolerated?
Thanks for all the cogent responses. I am working on an article on this issue and appreciate the input.
