Quotes on tolerance.

Given the state of the world at the moment, and specifically the way the ctrl-left want to restrict the freedom of speech of anyone who disagrees with their opinion, it seems particularly relevant to take a look at a selection of quotes on the subject of tolerance:

"There is a huge difference between being tolerant and tolerating intolerance."

~Ayaan Hirsi Ali

"If we extend unlimited tolerance, even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them."
~Sir Karl Popper

"We live in a world of intolerance masked as tolerance."

~Rush Limbaugh

"An intolerant sect has no right to complain when it is denied an equal liberty. A person’s right to complain is limited to principles he acknowledges himself."

~John Rawls

"Tolerance without dialogue is a euphemism for indifference."
~Count Miklós Cseszneky de Milvány et Csesznek

"Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant."

~Sir Karl Popper

"Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil."

~Thomas Mann

The quotes above reiterate an obvious point which some virtue signalers don't seem to grasp...

Tolerance should not extend to the tolerance of evil!

Tolerance should be about respect for people of all races, equal rights for men and women, and respect for freedom of speech and diversity of political opinion. It should not be about tolerance of evil.
