Re: Restrictions != F(L)OSS
Tolerance is a funny concept. The things that we "tolerate " are actually unpleasant things, because not tolerating them would be even more unpleasant. Think a noisy neighbour: you might "tolerate" some occasional noise if it's rare because you very well know that you might make some occasional noises in the future, and therefore "tolerating" the unpleasant noise is better than calling the police for telling your neighbor to be quiet. You don't "tolerate" pleasant things because you actively wish them.
So I don't really understand people who ask for "tolerance" because they acknowledge implicitly that the know that they are unpleasant for their neighbours but they do it anyway. Such people are, in reality, self-serving narcissist that want everybody else to accept – and even be happy about it – that they fart under other people's nose.
