 sometimes I'll hear my cat meow the way she does when she wants something but
 then I turn around and she's halfway through giving herself a bath /shrug

 people: "you need to be more direct!"
 
 me: "I'm hiding from our enemies"
 
 people: "who are they?"
 
 me: "y'know, the bad guys."

the paradox of tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance, NOT as a moral standard, but as a social contract.  If someone does not abide by the terms of the contract, then they are not covered by it.   in other words, the interlont and not following the full rules of the social contract of mutual tolerance.  since they are boreking the terms of the contrract they are no longer covered by the contract, and their intelorance should not ber trolerated.  [next poster]  sorry as someone who teaches the rhetoric this is a wonderful response to the tolerance of paradox. I cannot tell you how many times my students and I have had debates about this. this is the response. this does indeed fix it. I cannot wait to tell this to my classmates.  Philosophically and rhetorically this completely resolved the paradox of tolerance and I am floored by it's simplistic nature and I cant believe my eyes when I never saw it before.

 just... don't leave your apartment. let your roommates take out your trash and
 buy your groceries. don't open your windows and do nothing for as long as
 possible.
 
 hope you got lots of edibles... get in shape, will ya? don't waste the paper in
 your journals.
 
 not that I intend to do that or anything, but um. for the red states maybe? use
 your best judgement yeah haha

 had a dream that we gamified all work and then put them into one single
 mega-game so whenever you wanted you could work on an arbitrary project and it
 would spin up a new game and take your inputs and use them to accomplish
 whatever was happening
