Dear Opebo,

The intolerant thread got me thinking and I was wondering which posters you consider to be "tolerant" under your definition of the word.

Cheers

Hmm.  I don't see what you mean by 'my definition of the word', as I use the standard one.
 
But these posters seem tolerant - migrendel certainly...  probably lewis trondhem.  Who else?  I think liberalPA might come close..  I'm sure I'm missing a few others, but there certainly are very few.

Are you basing tolerance on Political Compass score?  Would you like to tell us about some posters that you don't know the PC of that you believe are tolerant?

No, I'm basing it on my personal impression of these people from what they have posted.  I don't know anyone's political compass score.

So you are pretty much just basing it on how liberal they are?  Are there any non-liberals you find tolerant?

Well, Bullmoose is pretty tolerant, as is Waltermitty, but of course they're liberals in a sense.  Certainly it is impossible for a social conservative to be tolerant, but definition.

No. I understand that. Lots of intolerant liberals around. (Including him.)
Opebo didn't even claim that, though. He just said that it's impossible to be a tolerant illiberal. Which is harder to refute.

Liberal means open-minded and to be tolerant, I do find, to be tolerant, people need to be open minded and not impose their own view of behavior on others.

And it does not mean advocating left wing economic policies, which is why I don't like the left having liberal as their ideological description. Tongue

Well, I can agree, though conservatives' use of the word "liberal" has set its current "definition" more than the left's use of the word.

I consider myself pretty tolerant. However, I will not tolerate people having sex with dogs or children. Sorry.

I have never stopped you from expressing your views. I just find them backwards and racist.

It is asking a lot of me to keep track of everyone.  I'd say you are pretty tolerant, so is BRTD, Speed of Sound, Eraserhead, Trondheim and some other lefists.  I'm bound to be missing a lot of them but I can't remember most people's names.

Of course you're not a tolerant! You disapprove of alcohol and think the religious right is right about gambling.

OMG YOU'RE A FASCIST FOR DISAPPROVING OF MY VICES LOL!!1111

I don't disapprove of Alcohol btw, I would be hypocrite if I did. I disapprove of binge drinking - difference. That does not mean of course I think that the State should intervene in it.

The religious right is certainly not right about gambling, but you have to admit that the issue is more complex than that.
