People Are Getting Tired of One-Way Tolerance
Town Hall ^ | 31 Mar2022 | Kurt Schlichter

Posted on 03/31/2022 5:58:11 AM PDT by Rummyfan

There was a time not long ago when even the most based conservative was willing to live and let live with all manner of divergent and bizarre people, but live and let live has become “I live and you submit” and that’s just not going to work out in the long run. The tolerant have been rewarded for their tolerance with intolerance, and if you look, you can already see the backlash brewing.

The breaking point may have been when the man who won the women’s swimming championship and all the smart, moral people of our garbage elite demanded we celebrate it. Or it might be weirdos trying to chat up our kindergarteners about sex. Or it might be CRT. Regardless, people are getting fed up. There’s a difference between living your life as you wish and making the rest of us live their lives as you wish too, especially when it’s a lie or when it means some freak gets to groom our kids.

Tolerance is good, but tolerance only works if it goes both ways. And that’s not happening anymore. It’s been weaponized, and if dumb people don’t stop their idiotic provocations they are going to see the emerging backlash grow and grow. It’s human nature – and human nature, contrary to the fantasies of the Marxists, has not been repealed.

His view—power is a zero sum game.

That is one of the main points of the Constitution. Limit the amount of power which flows to the government, especially the central government.

The Progressives have worked hard, with much success to concentrate more and more power in government, especially the Federal government.

We need to move more power back to the individual, away from the federal and state governments.

That is all very true.

Conservatives have been too willing to let others do the hard work of organizing politically and getting people elected, then acting effectively in office. EVERYONE needs to get involved at every level. “I’m not interested in politics, I’m busy with my job/career, etc.” isn’t going to cut it. It is your civic duty as an American, America only works if people volunteer and step up.

—The Russian leaders support and honor the Russian ethnic group and its history
—The Chinese leaders support and honor the Chinese ethnic group and its history

—While US and Western leaders attack white people as racists.


Good observation.

I can only suggest look at the direction. We are slowly moving to honoring our heritage but it is slow. There are many signs.

It is a slow process. eyes to see and ears to hear.

and do everything you can to help the process along. Know our heritage in detail. We can not give what we do not have...................

More than that,

ANYTHING: white, European, Christian, male, heterosexual, capitalist, or that has a hint of American exceptionalism is attacked.

Your kids are basically taught in school/college that critical thinking is attacking these. But dare not question or apply a value judgment to anything outside of those, because that would be “racist, ethnocentric, sexist/misogynistic, homophobic, or oppressive.”

A further thought.

Tolerance is a religion and ideology for too many.

How do you counter lies? You tell the truth repeatedly and confront the lies.

Find one person in your life , just one, to pass on our heritage.

That is the result of a Communist psyop that arguably started about 90 years ago. Frankfurt school. Hitler ran them out of Germany immediately upon taking power, and they landed at Columbia, which has been one of the core institutions subverting the country ever since.

At the core of liberalism is the spoiled child — miserable, as all spoiled children are, unsatisfied, demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic and useless. Liberalism is a philosophy of sniveling brats.

What’s happening now is distinctly uncool. And people are tired of it.

I hope he's right. We'll see in November.

Scratch a liberal and under his thin skin is a socialist. Dig a little deeper and you will find the murderous communist core that drives everything he says and does.

Excellent description. The recently posted video of the old woman on the airplane who was seated next to a young man wearing a Trump shirt is a fine example. I wish someone would hack the airwaves and play that video on a loop for a few hours. LOL

Tolerance is good, but tolerance only works if it goes both ways.

This statement is wrong! When this "equality" discussion came up years ago I remember good ol' Charlie Brennan on the mighty MOX 1120 AM out of St. Louis. A man came on to the call and brought up that pedophilia would be next after sodomy and he was cut off with a "'CMON MAN! You gotta be kidding me!" and the caller was hung up on. According to Charlie Brennan there was no way that pedophilia and "equality" were ever going to be a norm.

Tolerance is NOT good when it comes to pedophiles and the whole "equality" movement. They have a SCORCHED EARTH policy. They want sodomy, bestiality, pedophilia all normalized. It is their RELIGION! We are at the point where a pedophile is normal. He/she can approach your children/grandchildren and have sexual relations with them in the name of "sexual orientation" and "equality". They have codified it in to law that you cannot discriminate based on sexual orientation. So, get a cluepon people! Pedophilia is a sexual orientation! Surrender your children to this movement. Anyone who says "tolerance is good" doesn't have a clue!

If you have a belief in the God of creation in the name of "tolerance" you are told that you are a bigot and you need to shut up! Your children in school are being taught counter to your religious beliefs that everything they are taught in their religious instruction is bigotry and wrong.

Herbert Marcuse is the leftist who laid all the cards on the table with his 1968 book “Repressive Tolerance”.

Legalizing homosexual marriage opened the door to every freak show in town.

Life is a process, a series of processes even. Too many people seem to think, expect, that an event will come along and suddenly set things to right as if flipping a switch. Doesn't work like that, but how you described. And the more people who jump in and help, the faster the process moves, the more assured that it will happen. We may be seeing that now.

It has been a little over 10 years since the Penn State/Jerry Sandusky pedophile case happened. I worked at another university at the time, but had to do an online sexual harassment/victim course because of the fallout. I think the state requires background checks for employees working with children. This seems to have fallen on deaf ears in some jurisdictions.

Tolerance ended when the left decided that “silence is violence”.

The left has decided that anything short of full buy-in is unacceptable to them. In their view tolerance doesn’t cut it any more.

According to the left you must comply and you must publicly embrace their views or be sent to a re-education camp.
