{"title": "The Paradox of The Paradox of Tolerance", "timestamp": 1735398796.5594795, "description": "For me personally the word \"Tolerance\" means something akin to patience. Therefor I don't understand how we arrived at using this word to talk about Freedom. I have already [written an article](/articles/Is_Tolerance_The_Right_Word) suggesting that it is perhaps a wrong word to use, and something like \"Hate\" or \"Lack of Hate\" would be a much better word to describe contemporary politics. But then I keep hearing about this concept called [The Paradox of Tolerance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance) which has to do something with the current way the word \"Tolerance\" is used. But if the word itself is incorrect, how should the paradox make any sense? It is like we are having the paradox of the paradox of tolerance here.", "author": {"avatar": "https://blenderdumbass.org/pictures/favicon.png", "bio": "Aka: J.Y. Amihud.
