"Tolerance does not work"

[Emil]

From here:

"/T/olerance is an ineffective basis for reflection and action in our world today."

Pros and cons?


I agree with the cited statement. To tolerate means to let others be what they are, think and feel what they do - and this sooner or later comes at the expense of one's own identity.
A fundamental degree of intolerance for others is absolutely necessary if one is to have any basis for reflection and action.

What do you mean by tolerance?
If you understand this, then I am for tolerance and I'm too tired to argue.
Tolerance, as well as intolerance, I do not think it's a logical approach,
a rather sentimental, so it is hard to argue.

To add an perspective to the topic, & to have a look from Eastern philosophy, I post this real story:

Yeah, we heard that one. Stop worshiping Buddha fanboys and say something original.
