You're going to hurt yourself moving those goalposts around.

People feel very smart when making quips like this. Unfortunately for you, my goalpost is precisely the same:
> "paradox of tolerance" is a hypocrisy. If you are intolerant only to the intolerant you are not tolerant, it is as simple as that.
> It's ok to be intolerant at some things. What's not ok is to be intolerant and still claim to be tolerant. That's hypocrisy
(Don't hurt yourself, I understand it is an uncomfortable situation for you)

When the only way for you to be "right" is to argue the absolutist version of the definition of a word (tolerant in this case), you've lost.
Furthermore, such black and white thinking is often a sign of mental illness.
Also, do not equate actions and speech - and we're mostly arguing about free speech here, right?
