Why should I have to tolerate ignorance? There's enough of it in this world, and it probably won't stop even if it's being fought, but it definitely won't stop if the people who try to avoid ignorant views simply roll over to it.

I just answered that:

I consider being tolerant more important than being right, because the latter is heavily subjective anyway, despite what we tell ourselves to make it look like our rightness is righter than the other guy's rightness.

And I disagree. Someone who spouts off like an expert while making it painfully obvious they know little to nothing about a subject is something I refuse to tolerate.

Sure. There's ignorance. Lack of knowledge on a subject. Feel free to point out lack of knowledge if you encounter it.

I do, and did. "hurr durr brain size men smarter" shows an incredible lack of knowledge/research on the subject. It's not even close to that simple.
