      I’ll say it. The poster you were responding to is a bigot. ‘Tolerance of bigotry’ is itself bigotry, as it breaks the social contract of tolerance in the same way that bigotry does. By validating bigots, you are showing the minorities they target that you accept the bigotry against them and causing the same kind of harm as the bigot did in the first place.

      Yeah I replied to the wrong comment, that was meant for Lucifer somebody’s term paper rationalizing their meme-level thinking that it’s a binary world where you’re either GOOD or EVIL.
