It's a question of scale. You can tolerate mistakes, or obnoxious quirks because you know that they're not actively trying to cause problems.
The issue comes when we're demanded to tolerate active, malicious evil, masquerading as harmless quirks.
Yes, exactly. Tolerance levels exist. If a society has too fine of a tolerance it is basically ultra-fragile and can't adapt. If a society's tolerance is too broad, it will destroy itself.
Right, that was his original point - you can tolerate faggotry, for example, if it was in small numbers (i.e. during the 90s)
Since there was so few of them it was easy to tolerate them because they were tiny population that fucked off and did their own thing.
Now we no longer can do that. We have to take back the "weapon" of tolerance FROM them and draw strict lines on where those borders are. We shouldn't even TRY to meet their standards because their standards are always hypocritical and self-serving. Since we are in power we have to make sure the standards are defined OUR way.
Tolerating the few allows it to grow beyond the few and become a problem. We have seen this time and time again.
