This creates a phenomenon he called "repressive tolerance" because even though other views are allowed within Western culture and in [[America]] by the [[First Amendment]], the Capitalist view is still permitted. Marcuse considered that to be unacceptable.  Instead, he proposed what he called "[[partisan tolerance]]," i.e. tolerating the views of those "repressed minorities" only -- who Marcuse assumes share his partisan hatred for everything noncommunist -- while actively muzzling the views of the majority.<ref>http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3188306/posts</ref>

===Free speech and the Homosexual Agenda===

Liberals seek to amend hate crime legislation to include sexual orientation and/or gender preference to legitimize certain lifestyles by declaring them to be protected by law, and to chill [[free speech]] that criticizes those lifestyles.  Their reasoning is that if someone makes hateful statements and later commits a crime targeting a member of the group that was discussed, then the person would be subject to a higher penalty than if he had kept his thoughts unvoiced.  So, criminals will feel less free to speak their minds.  However, people who are sufficiently filled with hate to engage in violence against the target of their hate, are probably not going to have their speech curtailed in response to such legislation.
