I can see how tolerating something you really don't like is a bit of a sacrifice, but in return, every aspect of you gets tolerated by others too. And how many things do you really dislike anyway? And how many of those actually affect you?

@SW-User I noticed you replied to almost every other comment, but not this one. Did it make too much sense to turn it around to fit a hate agenda? Please prove me wrong, because you do seem to be on the right side of history in American politics.

I just don't like the idea of people claiming we are a tolerant country on the grounds of race and ethnicity.
Of course, tolerance is more relevant when you're talking about people's political views.
But claiming we are a tolerant country because of our multi-ethnic society is not a good thing. That says to me that I don't like you because you're not white. But I tolerate you.

@SW-User ah, you wish your country was more truly accepting rather than just tolerant? That makes a lot of sense.

@NerdyPotato I guess so. It's the word "tolerant" that perhaps people misuse, particularly with regard to race.
