>Yiannopoulos calling for Leslie Jones to be doxxed
You do realize that isn't true right?
>The KKK marching through my old hometown to let blacks know they should be afraid.
That is terrible but the problem is that this is what many people thought about civil rights activists marching down their streets.
Granted the people who were against the civil right marches are some of those who are marching today under a different banner but their right to march today is preferable to their right of not being offended in the 60's
>Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them.
The funny thing is that the tolerance paradox is what essentially killed the left, they absorbed so many authoritarian groups which essentially turned it into an authoritarian machine.
