The sub's mods deleted the comment too. I see it's every bit as much of a cesspool as it always was over there

    You know the paradox of tolerance? The idea that if you believe in tolerance, then you have to be intolerant of intolerance.

    I think this general concept is applicable in many areas. Like, it makes sense to be nonviolent except in preventing more violence.

    And in this case, we should all make a giant conspiracy to destroy the places where conspiracy theorists talk to each other.

  • The paradox disappears the moment, you handle tolerance differently.

    Handle it like a social contract that everyone is automatically part of. All are tolerated until they stop tolerating people who are also part of the contract.

    Whoever stops tolerating people who are part of the contract loses their "being tolerated privileges".
