Micro tolerance

Now to find his fellow man.

Well, that lasted…….

Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. 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.

—Karl Popper

Not all men, just my fellows.

I can’t tolerate new year’s resolutions.

Well I gave up on that new year’s resolution too! What has my fellow man ever done for me?

I am tolerant of people for who they are. I am intolerant of people for how they behave.
