What we should not tolerate is intolerance itself.

Lo que no debemos tolerar es la propia intolerancia.

I find that indifference toward others is often more insidious than intolerance, and what I think is paramount (implied arrogance here).

Me parece que la indiferencia hacia los demás es a menudo más insidiosa que la intolerancia, y lo que pienso es supremo (arrogancia implicada aquí).

Indifference

These days indifference can be more dangerous in my opinion amigo. - ian-hill, May 23, 2015

Los políticos son generalmente tan arrogantes que de vez en cuando estoy totalmente intolerante hacia ellos que no reconozco mi misma , siendo seguidora de la tolerancia.

Politicians are generally so arrogant that I am occasionally completely intolerant towards them that I cannot recognize myself, being a follower of tolerance.

En todas las sociedades hay comportamientos que no se permiten de sus miembros, y distintas sociedades tienen distintas cosas que no toleran. Y cuando una sociedad tiene intolerancias muy diferentes de otra sociedad, esas sociedades pueden tener dificultades en aguantarse. Por ejemplo, no tengo mucha paciencia por las sociedades que toleran la violencia contra las mujeres. Espero que no es arrogancia por mi parte.

Every society has behaviors that are not allowed from their members, and different societies have distinct things that they don't tolerate. And when one society has intolerances very different from another society, those societies can have difficulty in putting up with each other. For example I have little patience for societies that tolerate violence against women. I hope that is not arrogance on my part.

Hopefully not too political. But I will always believe that there are things we should be intolerant of. :) - bosquederoble, May 23, 2015
