But to a Progressive ‘tolerance’ means ‘celebratory approval’. To be Tolerant™ one must make it absolutely clear that one fully supports the idea in question. To be anything less than 100% approving is to risk being branded Intolerant™”. To be Intolerant™ is to risk being considered a Hater!™. And to be branded a Hater™ is a fate worse than death to a Progressive.

Your post does not go far enough. You must not only approve, you have to promote the idea in question.

YOU ARE CORRECT!

I must update my previous explanation;

It’s all about Tolerance™. (ver 2.0)

To a Conservative the word ‘tolerance’ means ‘casual indifference’.
To tolerate something means to ignore it, or at least not actively oppose it.

But to a Progressive the word ‘tolerance’ means ‘celebratory approval’. Casual indifference is not good enough! Even ‘friendly recognition’ is insufficient. Tolerance™ equals active promotion of a given position. To display anything less than 100% agreement is to risk being referred to as Intolerant™. To be called Intolerant™ is to risk being considered a Hater™. And to be branded a Hater™ is a fate worse than death to a Progressive.
