A personal favorite
Meme: The Paradox of Tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance not as a moral standard, but as a social contract. If someone does not abide by the terms of the contract, then they are not covered by it. In other words, The intolerant are not following the rules of the social contract of mutual tolerance. Since they have broken the terms of the contract, they are no longer covered by the contract, and their intolerance should NOT be tolerated.

Evergreen:
Three panel Spiderman meme of Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst) and Peter Parker (Toby Maguire): MJW (wearing a MAGA hat): Tell me the truth ... I'm ... I'm ready to hear it. PP: Republicans were the groomers the whole time. MJW: *in tears*

Whenever I get pushback decrying my "intolerance" I respond with this:
Text says: "The Paradox of Tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance, NOT as a moral standard, but as a social contract. If someones does not abide by the terms of the contract, then they are not covered by it. IOW, the intolerant are not following the rules of the social contract of mutual tolerance. Since they have broken the terms of the contract, they are no longer covered by the contract, and their intolerance should not be tolerated." Poster @commasameleon expresses appreciation for the simplicity and obvious truth of this argument.

So, I'm seeing this being passed around, and I have 2 questions. Is it factually accurate, and does it matter?

Yes, it's all about exhausting the energy and patience of good people so that bad people can continue to be bad without impediments. See "sealioning."
