When a society allows a privileged view to outlaw everything deemed "intolerant" then pretty soon a small number of people will vie for control over who gets to define what "tolerant" is...and at that point you live in a world where speech must be approved or is proactively censored...presumably with consequences for offenders.

Once you've reached that point, you don't live in a free society.

Wow, nice little flight of fancy there. You should read a little Karl Popper, but his view is tied to history and he supports it. There is much more chance of an authoritarian coming from the right, so we have to watch you. Is Jan 6 a one off? Or do you have more surprises in store?
