do evil games expect evil prizes, thank you Rainer Forst
edit: this is a pedagogical post, not a philosophical one. i actually fully agree with the paradox of tolerance and its conclusion! i just find that it doesn’t work as well as an educational tool for introducing people to the concept. sorry for any confusion :)
It's more shorthand for the absurdity of tolerating intolerance. It's a paradox of absolute tolerance, not of reality. It's not meant to be unsolvable in practice, only unsolvable within the frameworks of spineless moderates.
Literally! But I see people drop the “absolute” off the name all the time in conversations that introduce the concept (it’s not even in the Wikipedia title, despite “unlimited” being in the original author’s quote) which understandably scrambles the conversation. At best it leads to misunderstanding that needs to be corrected, at worst it leads to people calling each other nazi simps for not just “getting it.”
That's because seeing it that way is convenient. Any idea can be watered down and used for manipulation, from Marxism to loving your neighbor.
Usually used by people who think it is adequate to respond to words that hurt their feelings with physical violence
By hurt my feelings, you mean promise to enact violence on me with the law?
I'm afraid that when it comes to fascists, violence isn't adequate; It's necessary
