Nono, it’s not a paradox for where it starts, but for where it ends. OFC we shouldn’t tolerate hateful disruptors. Though once a war turns hot, it can be very difficult to tell who is the true agressor. Especially when both sides are calling each other all sorts of nasty things. To an ignorant, both sides can look the same, and there are a lot of ignorant people.
It’s not a paradox for the principles it describes, but the reality it creates. Calling it a paradox is a stark warning to avoid becoming the intolerant and to never lose the context of who is doing what and what for. If you boil it down to, “don’t start none, won’t be none”, then you’ve already lost the context.
Tolerance is not an absolute principle, it’s just a social contract. People who breach it aren’t protected by it; end of paradox.
