Republicans and assorted right wing trash: Leftists demand tolerance but they aren’t tolerant of us!
It’s hypocrisy!
Me, a person with a working brain: No it’s not because the Left is asking you to be tolerant of people just existing and living their lives in a way which does absolutely no harm to anyone
While you are making bomb threats against childrens hospitals and comitting mass shootings
There’s a little bit of a difference between the two
Carlson and the other asshats deserve the Alex Jones treatment immediately. Fine them out of existence
Nothing would make me happier than to see Fox News get so many lawsuits that it winds up getting sued into bankruptcy, putting every single person who works there out of work <3

Social War
The Social War (also called the Marsi War and well as the War of the Allies) of 91-87 BCE was the result of decades of contention between Rome and its Italian allies. Roman warfare relied heavily on the Italian allies (socii), but the Roman Republic did not grant them citizenship. The main cause of the Social War was this inequality in status.
Causes
This tension had its beginnings at the very onset of the Roman expansion across the Italian peninsula. Between 500 and 275 BCE, the citizen armies of the Roman Republic brought Latium and the remainder of the peninsula under its thumb. While allowing these newly acquired allies limited self-government, Rome demanded one thing from them: loyalty. This loyalty brought with it a distinct benefit for Rome: an unlimited supply of manpower for its military campaigns. As Rome reached across the Mediterranean with its long arms into Spain, Greece, North Africa, and Asia, its demand for manpower increased. As Rome demanded more and more from its Italian allies, the tension grew with it.
Just a healthy reminder
You are NOT a Capitalist
You are an exploited worker with Stockholm Syndrome
