    Popper’s paradox of intolerance was written nearly a century ago. Your definition and his definition of tolerance are not the same.

    In fact, if you actually read his works instead of a wikipedia article headline(lol), then you will find YOU are the one he was criticizing. Popper believed the intolerant were those who would rely on censorship rather than debate. Literally, tolerance of debate.

    As you can imagine, I find the irony of your comment hilarious.

      My definition? What is my definition of tolerance?

      Nearly a century ago? You’re a math genius, by your standards I’m turning 100 already.

      The “open society” book was written with fascism as a background and as a reaction to it. But, of course - if only we had debated a bit more with fascists…

      Go back to watching Peterson clips.

        Triggered by the truth?

        Yeah, it was written with fascists in mind. That’s why it applies to your fascist rhetoric, rofl
