Tolerance vs intolerance is a false dichotomy. Our actions can be viewed as points on a 2-dimensional axis between the two. Is showing discomfort with another's overly racist ideas tolerant or intolerant? What about asking questions about why someone made a casual offhand comment? Refusing to participate in a group blackface costume for Halloween? Are these tolerant or intolerant actions?

No one is claiming that it’s not a continuum. Even the Wikipedia summary of the paradox of intolerance refers to societies that are tolerant without limit.

This, to me, is a straw man
