Tolerance by itself can be a cover for moral laziness. In a world with real and pressing problems, tolerance is merely a precondition for politics -- it is not itself a meaningful politics.

"The thing that makes a bike lane “equitable” is that most people can afford a bike even if they can’t afford a car... It turns out the transportation we needed was there all along, just waiting to get better...
"E-bikes [are] cutting oil demand by a million barrels a day, probably more than EVs."

The relentless flood of information we receive does not necessarily equal an understanding of our situation... It doesn't matter if you hear constantly, night after night, about poor children or abused elders. It matters that you hear about them in some way both deep enough and complicated enough that you'll go out and do something useful.
