Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

It's a clever way bigots came up with to try to show that we must allow people to be intolerant.
It's bullshit like everything else the alt right says.
If the primary rule of society is "be tolerant" and you break it, well, fuck you, there are going to be consequences.
It's that simple. There is no paradox.

No. It's upholding the primary rule of society.
it's the opposite.
no. it's used by leftists to justify hating nazis, at least that's how it was used whenever I saw it in the wild.
Also if you look at the conclusion of the paradox, you'll see that it can't really be used any other way.
