Are people who are intollerant towards intollerance hypocrites?

Question

Hating haters, are you just as bad as them?
should we be able to accept those who don't accept us or others around us? Do they have that right to be intollerant just as people have the right to be tollerant??
Just odd sorts of things that came to mind. They have their opinions and such, but It's so hard to just let people go about being predjudice, and hatefull and shtuff.

Answer 1

so we can't beat up the class bully?
can't put the serial killer to death?

hating people because they are different is not the same thing as disliking people because they hate. intolerance for the sake of intolerance is simply ignorance on parade. there's nothing wrong with being different. there's everything wrong with making it negative that someone is different than you. and there's even more wrong with enabling or supporting this behavior in others. it spawns all our racist, sexist, religious, age, etc..descrimination. if i don't agree with you on this opinion, that doesn't mean i should have the right to treat you poorly, or in any mean spirited manner. it just means we're different. if my reaction was "stick it", you shouldn't have to accept that, no?

Answer 2

Hum...I suppose, like everything else, and in our own little corner of the world, we decide each day, by our own tolerance level what and who we will tolerate or not. It's like, two communities blended into one. We are the balance of the two. On each side we debate, and participate and the topic of choice is always the views of life. By the amount of participation on each side there is always an end result, and a lesson learnt each day. Some will enhance our skills, others challenge what we enhance. The difference between both communities, is one is more open minded to the world, and can accept change more easily, while the other is close minded, to the world, and refuse to accept change in society. That's my opinion, the question, was very interesting, thanks for asking.

Answer 3

Nope, looks like somebody a million/2 way sane to me, even with the shown fact that, bear in innovations theres an excellent line between protecting your self and letting others walk over you...... on the different hand..........what could you may desire to benefit by bieng intollerant to somebody else who's intollerant? A combat?

Answer 4

In ways I guess I am a hypocrite but hear me out. I am not prejudice. But I do dislike many different people. Not sorted by race, ethnicity, religion, sex, weight or disabilities. Every single race, religion etc has many morons. People who are a disgrace to the human race. Such as terrorists, gangs, criminals, some politicians, etc. Those who think everyone else owes them something and don't do a positive thing about it. Like people who collect welfare, keep poppin kids and shooting up. They come in all shapes, colors and sizes. So actually it isn't hypocritical, just my humble opinion.

Answer 5

Catch 22

Answer 6

In my opinion which I have developed due to living, learning, growing and tons of interaction with people from a lot of states and walks of life, I hate to say it but I think we all, each and every one of us has been or will be a hypocrite sometime in our life over
one issue or another. If we truly examine our statements made over time we will then have realizations we were totally unaware of regarding the issues you've broached and we will all be surprised if not shocked by what we find...I know I have been!!

Answer 7

We must love someone who hates us.We must be tollerant to
others.Hypocrites is nonsense. We are created imperfect.We should work together with others.We should accept those who do not accept us.We should love our enemy and help the other who are wanting to be helped.We should appreciate other's opinion which is different with us.We should treat other as good as ours.Making an enemy is easier than making a good friend.

Answer 8

1. I think that they are just very frustrated and do not know where to channel it in a constructive way.

2. They may be very sensitive people who do not like discord of any kind, and cannot understand why people won't participate with societie's diversities.

3. If they happen to be around bigoted people, by circumstance, on a daily basis, it probably takes its toll.

Answer 9

You should be careful not to hate, because hate can distort clear understanding.

But you should also keep an eye on the haters, because left unchecked, they can, like Nazis and Georgians hungry for Cherokee land, cause much misery and suffering.

Answer 10

sounds like a Catch 22
