The response to Elon obviously speaks for itself, but @DaveChappelle just outright ripping on ‘the poors” in the upper level that literally paid money to come see him perform may be the most disturbing part of this. Pretty gross.

@SteveSchmidtSES Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed & tolerance w/ them. 1/4
@SteveSchmidtSES In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be most unwise. 2/4
@SteveSchmidtSES But we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary even by force; for it may easily turn out that they are not prepared to meet us on the level of rational argument, but begin by denouncing all argument; they may forbid their followers to listen to rational argument, 3/4
