A federal appeals court on Tuesday ruled that Texas hospitals and doctors are not obligated to perform abortions under a longstanding national emergency-care law, dealing a blow to the White House’s strategy to ensure access to the procedure after the Supreme Court overturned the constitutional right to abortion in 2022.
This is the paradox of tolerance. You don’t need to show kindness to those who would sooner spit on you for no greater reason than that they hate you for being born or the circumstances of your life.
People can change, but being given a second chance is a privilege and not a right. If you fuck up badly enough, no one is obligated to forgive you. Plenty of us make it through our whole lives without being fearful little shits who dedicate our votes to hurting others. I have no tolerance for those who can’t manage that, and they’re LUCKY to get a second chance, not guaranteed.
Ah I was confused at first I was like you’re describing the solution to that paradox, but then I think your intended meaning clicked
It’s an interesting thought experiment until, like you mentioned, you consider tolerance is only for those who are themselves tolerant.
Either you play in this ball park or you don’t, simple as that
