Why must I be tolerant towards the intolerant?

It's a free country, you're free to be a racist or an anti-theist or a sexist or just about any other -ist. But when your intolerance makes you a legal liability to employers, you'll have yourself to blame.

And insofar as you find SQLite's developers intolerable, this is definitely a "you" problem. The vast majority of us don't have a problem with SQLite's developers, they make software that is used by a huge and diverse group of people. This makes your intolerance all the more stark.
