Speaking of Intolerance...

30. The OP is not about intolerance directed by theists.

So it is off topic. When someone points out that you are off topic, you often start a new thread about whatever it is you want to talk about instead. When starts a thread about some other topic, you often turn the subject to intolerance, which in turn you reduce to tribalism, which then you reduce to a universal human trait.

When someone points out you have done this, or done some other undesirable thingx you point to other people who do it too. And if at last, you run out of excuses and dodges, you admit you are human and end the conversation.

So you do just post these things to just to turn the conversation to a tautology: humans are humans.

Surely there is more to any subject than tautologies and banalities? If not, why not vote for Trump? He is intolerant like all of us, he is tribal, he is human, he might not even hate Uighurs, therefore he is no worse than any Democrat, and a perfectly fine example of human behavior.

Thereby, we have leveled all of our behaviors to our lowest common denominator, but at least we are not intolerant. Right?
