Sure. Acceptance means you accept the sin as normal or as not even a sin in the first place. Tolerance means you still call it a sin but you don't actually beat up/harass people engaging in said sin.
I work with homosexuals and I know of some in my neighborhood. The fact that I don't scream at them in person and/or physically attack them is tolerance. In fact, I can't explain to them what sin is without this type of approach. However, I don't accept said sin as acceptable. If/when the subject comes up I will say what is Biblically correct. That's the difference.
I would argue that acceptance is the sin not tolerance.
Okay, please explain to me the difference.

From what you just said, you're peddling merely your own personal definition of those words. Because they're synonyms.
It seems you’re the one using your personal definitions because they’re not synonymous.
