Paradox of tolerance applies here. Your "argument" amounts to nothing but the usual right wing lies of "so much for the tolerant left". A tolerant society requires intolerance towards the intolerant. It is not that difficult to grasp.

I've always disliked that this is called a "paradox". It's more of a linguistic issue more than logic. The statement is just as well "we dislike malice". No paradox there.
