    This is actually an accurate portrayal of many people who call themselves ‘tolerant’ and left I’ve found on the internet unfortunately. Too many people only tolerate people with the same opinions as them, and think free speech should only apply to those with their own views.

      Yep. Tribalism is present and the “other” is always immoral, evil and deranged. I cite this as a reason why so many elections are lost. An echochamber that powers itself, when confronted / asked about policies going “I don’t need to explain this is common sense”

      “with the same opinions as them”

      This is hilarious. No it’s with the opinion that we should all treat each other well.

      Why should anyone treat u well if u prove you’re a shit person who treats others badly?

      I’m guessing your “differing opinion” Is something like “blacks cause most of the crime” or “globalists”
