Yes, but boundaries are extremely important if you’re going to do it. 100% agree that people become extremists in the first place because an extremist group welcomed them with open arms when no one else would. But you run the risk of falling into the tolerance paradox…under no circumstances should anyone’s intolerance be tolerated.
Yeah if you welcome them in you run into them radicalizing normies. The alt right playbook is an extremely useful primer on modern right wing rhetoric even today
Great point but I don’t know if we should keep that hard and fast rule. Please discuss with me but I think intolerance might have to only be chided and not outright rejected in order for change to occur. You don’t invite a Nazi into your house and pretend genocide is okay but if you’re trying to change them you can’t kick them out when they express insane views or we’re back to square one because they will say unacceptable shit. Don’t tolerate it but don’t exorcise them from your space unless you’re doing it for yourself right?
