    Edit - My mistake, I somehow was blind to the first in-.

     

    In a tolerant society we must be intolerant of intolerance.

    No we musn’t. The intolerant have broken the social contract and are no longer extended that latitude.

      Screw the paradox. Tolerance is a social contract. Intolerant people aren’t covered by the contract, therefore intolerance of intolerance isn’t hypocritical or paradoxical.
