Don’t worry, the history books will remember the hippie mass shootings of ‘23. You know the ones.

Or is this one of those “intolerant of intolerance” things?

whoa whoa I wasn't talking about politically-motivated shootings. the comment i replied to just said "see the human". yeah, it's the paradox. i just meant that leftists dont put up with conservatives, but conservatives try to appeal to civility and looking like a good christian neighbor and whatnot. their actions are hateful, but they claim to look beyond political leaning when judging a person. i dont think leftists are as inclined to disregard conservatism. a judgment based on politics. maybe it's not so bad that the left does it way more.

can the left be intolerant of intolerance while simultaneously looking beyond political leanings and just "see the human"? I don't know. should they? I don't know. do they? I think most make a point not to.
