This gets at the paradox of tolerance

No, it doesnt. You're again being disingenuous.

There is no paradox.

The mail carriers deliver the mail. They do not censor it based on personal feelings.

The christo-fascist movement seeks to use our own institutions against us to destroy our way of life

He says, literally trying to undermine the institutions by arguing to allow people to undermine them, as long as he agrees with their undermining

The argument that sounds right wing is yours

Yes yes, Gaslight, Obstruct, Project

Your entire argument boils down not in favor of justice, accountability and integrity, but in favor of "Let people undermine things as long as I agree with it".

They do not censor it based on personal feelings.

Fascists getting people killed with a disinformation campaign is not feelings. We do not have to tolerate intolerance in order to be a tolerant society. We can make the strategic decision to defend ourselves and our liberty from fascists who want to destroy us.

FYI I'm a woman. I'll add my pronouns to my bio.

Eventually there won't be a mail service if fascists kill us all.

Yes yes, Gaslight, Obstruct, Project

This is what your argument is doing.

justice, accountability and integrity

None of these ideals are embodied by a life-threatening disinformation campaign or those who would knowingly let such a campaign slide.
