Bad Words: Tolerance
<p>These different ways of being, of simply existing, cannot be considered <em>unpleasant or annoying</em> without dehumanizing the subjects in question.</p>
<p>The problem is the people who believe in hateful superstitions in the first place.</p>
<p>The <em>victims</em> of those beliefs are hardly what’s objectionable here.</p>
