      I think downvoters have forgotten the paradox of tolerance. That said, intolerance should be applied at the individual level (ie don’t tolerate a nazi because they are a nazi), not by group (like the scenario this thread is about did).

          More like if there’s a bunch of nazis in an area, don’t assume any white person is a member and request carpet bombings of neighborhoods.
