Damn those demon leggings!
FROM TOLERANCE TO VIOLENCE IN THE BLINK OF AN EYEA pro-life girl hits the streets with a mic to do some interviews. One woman happily agrees, smiles, seems open-minded... all good — until the questions don’t quite match her views. The smile fades, the tension builds, and suddenly — punch.
And this isn’t a one-off. Not long ago we saw the exact same scene: a pro-life guy asking questions about abortion, a woman stops with her daughter, answers for a bit… and then assaults him.
Same pattern, different setting.
What’s striking —or rather worrying— is the kind of people behind these reactions. The ones who claim to be open, respectful, tolerant, champions of dialogue, love, and “live and let live.” But the moment someone disagrees, boom — fuse lit. And instead of arguments, they go straight to violence.
We’re sold a narrative of freedom and tolerance, but if you don’t fit the mold, if you challenge the approved ideas, you’re suddenly the “enemy.”
And that, my friend, isn’t tolerance. That’s just dogma with a new label.
