Tolerance and intolerance are opposites, and like most opposites, are mutually incompatible. I’m not intolerant of you - I value tolerance, which means, by definition, that I oppose intolerant behavior.
Tolerance doesn’t mean “everything for everyone.” It is a positive, affirmative values system, which has a proper moral structure. It says “this is good” sometimes, and “this is bad” at other times. It isn’t relativism, it isn’t the idea that everything is good, or the idea that you can’t know good from bad. The values of a culture which are positive and affirming for everyone are to be celebrated, while the values of a culture that are harmful and intolerant are to be changed.
Tolerance isn’t a “kick me” sign, or a “go ahead and kick whom you want” sign. It’s a “no kicking” sign. Because “kicking” however defined, harms other people, and harming another person is wrong.
