Again, not what "tolerant" means.
showing willingness to allow the existence of opinions or behaviour that one does not necessarily agree with.
You don't get to pick and choose individual things to be tolerant of, you don't get to pick a side and then not be tolerant of the other side, that's just not tolerance.
(What you can to, is to pick one side and then be tolerant, to show willingness to accept the existence of the other side, while seeking to change minds on the other side)
