Apparently a number of the faculty at this school have never heard of the paradox of tolerance. Dumb and dumber.

@alexlunaview That's how to do it! #ParadoxOfTolerance?WhatParadox?
@Kueperpunk I'm glad you used the word #Tolerance. I have been hoping the #Democrats in the US and similar political parties and organizations have finally #WokeTheFuckUp to what #KarlPopper warned about in his #ParadoxOfTolerance. Perhaps it is #TooLittleTooLate.
More relevant than ever.

6.10: The Dilemma of Utopian Joy: Ariel & Christina Discuss
While solarpunks often choose to stand in direct opposition to selfishness, greed, and systemic problems, the choice to be kind and to prioritize joy, sympathy, and understanding is also central to solarpunk in fiction and in real life. As Christina and Ariel discuss, while acts of kindness occur in all sorts of fictions, even cyberpunk and dystopian fictions, acts of kindness in solarpunk stories tend to be transformative, especially for the person or group on the receiving end. They then explore the sacrifices that it takes (and who has to make them) in order to maintain peace, prosperity, and joy in society by two famous solarpunk–adjacent stories set in utopias, “The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas” by Ursula K. LeGuin and “The Ones Who Stay and Fight” by N.K. Jemisin. Christina is not sure if she’s on board for either of these stories, but she agrees with the premise that now is the time not to walk away in disillusionment, but to fight hard for human rights, justice, and fairness in all of our different political systems and societies.

@JuliusGoat Sadly, I think that #OpenSeason on #TheRich and the #Callous may be what #KarlPopper was alluding to in the #ParadoxOfTolerance https://www.the-reframe.com/peaceful-solutions/

"In particular, anger put people in a frame of mind in which they were more indiscriminately punitive, particularly to out-groups. They would also underestimate the risk of negative outcomes.”

No, there are times when we cannot agree to disagree.
So, if we mostly can agree on the "paradox of tolerance", that we shouldn't tolerate the intolerant to influence how we operate our society, because they will destroy tolerance…
Then shouldn't we also consider that maybe there's a similar paradox on not using democracy to let anti-democratic forces take over a democratic society, because they will dismantle democracy?
"The Paradox of Tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance, not as a moral standard, but as a societal contract."
