"Intolerance" in the context of sociocultural and political matters is such a foolish term. Here's why: a person can only be truly "tolerant" if they reject and disapprove of absolutely nothing. This means that generally, they have to accept all viewpoints which means they have to have absolutely no conviction that their position is moral or correct. The other person capable of this is a complete moral relativist and someone without any conviction whatsoever as to what is politically the best course of action. So really, everyone is intolerant, but from what I've seen, leftists are usually the ones who like to think of themselves as the most "tolerant," and frame everyone with opposing views as "intolerant," but that means they themselves are taking up a position of "intolerance" against those they've deemed "intolerant." But if you are intolerant of that which you consider to be intolerant, that makes you...intolerant, not tolerant. So you see, it's all subjective. Unless a position is predetermined to be correct or righteous, there is no such thing as tolerant or intolerant. Tolerance is just relativism. It all just depends on where you stand, what you believe, and how willing you are to tolerate the stances and beliefs of others. That is why it is so dishonest when leftists calls people intolerant. All it means is they have positions the leftist doesn't agree with.
