That’s just something the ignorant say

If you try to get rid of intolerance then you will find they out number you and it will lead to a more intolerant society

You have to limit the ability for it to spread by expanding education and publicly engage with them to challenge their ideas so that others can see the faults in their logic

The worst thing you can do is force them into their own communities, something social media promotes, because then intolerance grows

Yes, but you want to be careful you're not lending legitimacy to their movement, either. If it's a fringe, wacko idea, it shouldn't be on NBC.

But yeah, inoculating people against the kinds of arguments they make is good work.

This is actually what Karl Popper said if you read the entire quote. This comic cut out that part.
