I dont think people know what tolerance means...

Nowadays, lots of people (specially, influential people with lots of supporters) keep claiming that "we can't be tolerant to the intolerant", or some nonsensical fallacies like that.
Tolerance is not: "I love you, and you love me"
That will be called, ehm, Love.
Tolerance is also not: "You MUST love me! And I MUST love you!"
Thas some creepy anime girl love freak stuff.
What Tolerance really is, it's:
I HATE YOU with PASSION! And you HATE ME with PASSION!...
...but lets agree on a ceasefire, so we dont murder each other, Muttually Assured Destruction style. You go on you way, I go mine. If you dare punch me, I might not turn the other cheek.
At least, that's what I thought Tolerance was all about.

These days tolerance is being rewritten to benefit the individual who wants to weaponfy it for his/her/its own cause.
Tolerance and respect are more or less gone these days, atleast with the new generation that is growing up with people who think they can act gods against each other and have zero respect without consequences.
