    They want to say and do anything they want.

    It’s human variation, some people will keep taking until there are consequences. As soon as there is consequences, they want to take a step back to where there was no consequences. But they’ll always take another step forward eventually.

    We can’t tolerate the intolerant, because they’ll always see being tolerated as an attack and persecution, they won’t be happy till everyone agrees with them, and by then they’ll be more extreme than anyone else and the cycle keeps moving.

      True. We can’t let them just dance over the line, that wears away the line

      If they cross the line at all, they’ve broken the social contract. They are no longer protected by it, no longer entitled to tolerance or respect. They don’t deserve to go about their lives unmolested or get invited to family dinner

      It’s like, basic civilization type shit. The problem is we’ve confused what is legal with what is acceptable as a society
