the paradox of tolerance is nonsensical, since it completely misses the point of why tolerating beliefs that are different than yours is necessary to begin with: acatalepsy
it is fundamentally impossible to be fully certain of any belief you may have, so to increase the chance of whichever belief is actually right to survive in the long term, it is important to allow *all* (absolutely no exceptions) sides to present their case
the paradox of tolerance misses that in the sense that what to consider "intolerant" *is itself a belief*, so it all goes back to "not tolerating things i disagree with", which was the problem from the beginning
