Tolerance for fascism is like trying to negotiate with cancer.

I agree but I wasn't referring to fascism but the principle.

What I didn't agree with about your post is that intolerance is an attitude. So it's not something we need to tolerate.

We can tolerate our racist uncle but we shouldn't tolerate the racism. Because the attitude is like cancer and if we don't put it in check it will spread.
