Well, maybe people who don’t understand should look for more detailed nuance to “tolerant”.

Or to their grade school history lessons.

Great vaguepost. No notes. 🙄

I assume they're talking about the idea that tolerance is a social contract, and that people who do not abide by it are not protected by it either. I.e. It is not a contradiction of tolerance to not tolerate intolerance.
