In other words, if you are tolerant of the intolerant, you encourage intolerance.

Political polarization isn't an easy situation to address fairly, except by remaining honest.

Part of the extreme polarization is the inability to accept that people who disagree with us may in fact be honest.

Herein lies the problem. I suspect that people who disagree with me are honest but "honest" fascists or neoliberals aren't any better than dishonest ones. Issue lies not in honesty (or lack of it) but in views that can't be tolerated in civilized society.
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.
