Yeah, tolerance is one of those terms the left has fucked with to the point where it only means what it means when they want it to.
You don't wanna refer to someone who's clearly a man as "she", that should be fine so long as you leave them the fuck alone, but no. The left no longer considers that to be tolerance. Now, if you don't call people whatever they want, that's intolerance, and they don't have to tolerate your intolerance! Never mind the fact that bullying people to change how they speak is quite intolerant.
I'm sick of "tolerance" now, because they've twisted it into something its not. Personally, I think it would be better to advocate for "indifference". We should all try to be "indifferent" towards each other. There's no twisting that word, cause it just means you don't give a fuck about something. Want me to call you "they/them"? Too bad, idgaf about your identity, I'm indifferent. If you don't like it, you should try not giving a fuck, be indifferent.
Problem is, this would probably never work because it seems to be ingrained in most people that "tolerance" is the way to go. This is why I think it was always a poor word choice, honestly. It was only a matter of time before people tried to twist the definition and start with all the "We won't tolerate your intolerance!" shit.
