'Tolerant' people who love everybody will destroy you if you disagree with them
Americans believe in [[free speech]], but to be tolerant you should ''[[respect]]'' other people's beliefs. You can still disagree with someone's beliefs or practices.

Some people pay lip service to the concept of tolerance, demanding it for themselves while denying it to others.
A Hollywood conservative complained once to [[Larry Elder]] that
:"The tolerant people who love everybody will destroy you if you disagree with them. It's ridiculous and scary, but it's real, and I doubt most people outside of LA would believe to what extent. You could be a criminal or an illegal alien or a Palestinian terrorist, and they would leap to your defense and support your rights. But g-d forbid you're a Republican or a Trump supporter. You're the enemy, and they're blatantly against you and proud of it."<ref> [http://www.jewishworldreview.com/cols/elder030620.php3 Report from the 'cultural' frontlines: 'Tolerant' people who love everybody will destroy you if you disagree with them] By Larry Elder - Published March 5, 2020</ref>
