do evil games expect evil prizes, thank you Rainer Forst
edit: this is a pedagogical post, not a philosophical one. i actually fully agree with the paradox of tolerance and its conclusion! i just find that it doesn’t work as well as an educational tool for introducing people to the concept. sorry for any confusion :)
Just be tolerant with the tolerants while intolerant with the intolerants, like a prisioner dilema strategy
yup! it’s quite simple and i wish the internet wasn’t so primed to cite the paradox posing a problem rather than saying the solution
i see people get confused by the paradox all the time, because they are used to the concept of the logical kind of paradox which has no solution.
but the concept of the social contract is intuitive. easy peasy.
That is, in fact, exactly what Poppler’s paradox of tolerance says.
i agree with what it says. i just don’t think it’s good as an educational tool for introducing people to the concept.
I’m not sure what concept you’re trying to introduce to people, but if they don’t understand the paradox of tolerance then you aren’t explaining it very well because it’s extremely easy to understand.
tell that to the 9373626 internet arguments i’ve seen misunderstanding it and saying “its a paradox there is no solution” lol
