And at that point, people have to be reminded-
A) When literally everything that doesn’t follow progressive doctrine is considered intolerance, is it really the non-progressives that are intolerant at this point?
B) City blocks full of completely innocent businesses have been burned down daily for the past three months. It’s not the non-progressives burning them down. Who is being intolerant here?
I see people make this sort of argument a lot but I don't think it's a winning proposition. Intolerance is a good thing. The entire reason why this cultural war was even allowed to happen in the first place is that normal people have been conditioned to tolerate all kinds of horrifyingly degenerate shit, and the degenerates will never stop, they will always demand more, because tolerance is weakness and they know it.
The cultured man has the obligation to be intolerant.
At this point the average person's answer to a hairy man in a dress demanding access to women's bathroom is "well I'd rather you wouldn't, but I tolerate your viewpoint I guess". The mainstream view of tolerance is now "I shall bend over and take it", and that's not how you achieve anything productive. Being intolerant means nothing holding people up to some very basic standards; don't be afraid to do that. Be the most intolerant person you know. Don't even tolerate your own failings.
