Once someone explained tolerance vs philosophy of tolerance that made sense to me. Tolerance is just a word that means that you are okay with things that you find annoying/repulsive. E.g. you were annoyed but tolerated flight delays. Philosophy of tolerance is that you belief that all people deserve to live in peace even if you don't agree with their lifestyle, skin color, religion etc. AND if you really believe in it, you will fight against any ideas that disagree with this philosophy. The tolerance as philosophy is not a logical problem. It is dealing with human behavior. It doesn't require that in order for you to adhere to it, you must also tolerate intolerance. Though in my view, sometimes it is okay to stay quiet when your racist uncle is whining about "others" at family dinner. |
