Dave Rubin: So You Think You're Tolerant?

[Sparko]

The left is tolerant so long as you don't support oppression. If you want to call that intolerance, that's fine with me.

but "oppression" is just "values we liberals don't like" - they didn't have any problems oppressing Conservative speakers at various events by rioting and shouting them down. So again, the left is against oppression, except when they want to oppress others.

So yeah you can call it whatever you like, but it is intolerance.

[Psychic Missile]

A) You're not a mind reader
2) You don't know everybody - or even the majority of people - in that group.

You're just trying to make the left's intolerance sound noble.

I can't imagine that between all the people I know and talk to in real life and online and all of the opinions I see and hear in real life and online that there is some hidden majority I don't know about.

"Values we liberals don't like" includes but does not solely consist of oppression. Conservatives are the majority group in the US so they can't be oppressed. I am in favor of intolerance when it is based on someone having the viewpoint that a minority group should be considered a second class citizen. The road that ideology takes a society down should be intolerable.

This is akin to the ridiculous assertion that a minority can't be racist.

It's easy to oppress the majority if they don't fight back. That is what's been happening for the past couple of decades but seems to be changing.

wait. I thought the argument was that the liberals were the majority and that is why Hillary should have won? They can't make up their mind.
