Which sums you up best? Be honest.

A. I am tolerant of the opposing side and view.

B. I am intolerant of the idiocy from the opposing side and view and make no excuses about it.

C. I claim to be tolerant but attack anyone not sharing my views because they are bigots and racists.

D. I used to be tolerant of the other side until they began to constantly display their idiocy.

I can actually enjoy discussing issues with a liberal for hours.

But, the second, and I mean THE SECOND they impugn my motives for holding a view, my tolerance ceases. Imply I'm racist, sexist, phobic, don't care blah blah blah and I'm done and it's about to get nasty.

Do not let others squelch your spirit.

I have always been very tolerant of others views in the mold of "I don't agree with you, but will fight for your right to say it..." but I'm not anymore. I'm so tired of the progressives and their intolerance and bitch fits since losing. I think we need to bring back the Cold War stigma with these left wing loons and start ridiculing them into all going to California

D. I am not tolerant of the other side. They're a bunch of Communists and are only worthy of ridicule and mockery.

I don't judge leftists by the nuts on this board, as I have leftist friends and relatives with whom I have reasonable discussions. It doesn't occur to me if I tolerate them or not, because I'm not an ANTIFA nazi.

A and B are the same, regardless of the embellishment.

"Tolerance" is just that. It is acknowledging the existence of something, and allowing it to exist and continue despite any opposition you may have to it and your ability to get rid of it.

"Acceptance" is more than tolerance. By "acceptance" you actually ascribe a legitimacy and quality to that other/opposing/different thing/belief equal to your own.

Libs/progs demand acceptance (and, in many instances, subservience to their view [i.e., their intolerance]).

I am intolerant of intentional dishonesty, organized deceit, personal corruption, logical irrationality, disrespectful arrogance, purposeful ignorance, violent 'protests' and addiction to ideological power ---- regardless of which side.

I am just as intolerant of any emergence of these qualities in the conservative arena just as I have always been wrt to the DEMs.

So - a qualified 'B.'

I view being "tolerant" of the left to be as stupid a proposition as being "tolerant" of ISIS.

The left is comprised of emotionally fragile children masquerading as adults who would remove all of our freedoms to get their way and who would silence all opposition when given the chance. They protest over hurt feelings and bad dreams and they destroy property, reputations, careers, and lives to make a point. They should not be tolerated but they are.

The right sticks up for their freedoms of speech, association, and religion even while hating their message and how they deliver it. The left better hope Muslims don't get large enough here to push their agenda because liberals won't be tolerated by them when there are disagreements.

The Democrat Party and the Globalist Left are now very closely aligned here in the USA.

Conservatives believe their political opponents are wrong. Democrats believe that their political opponents are evil.

There's no way to compromise or bring the two sides together. There is no room for tolerance of the other side when one side is using violence on the other side.

I used to be an A this election turned me into a B. I really can't stand this new breed of "progressives." They are the worst humans in the history of humans.

Its mind numbing that these people (women,gay,trans,etc) bad mouth America so much but if they ever pulled this shite elsewhere they would be shot and killed on the spot
