Tolerance is no peace treaty, that's a bad analogy. There is no mutual accord between people before they tolerate each other. This is re-defining words in an attempt to do "continental philosophy", a bunch of hot air to justify claims, which happen to be the exact opposite of what the article is claiming... let's redefine tolerance so that "we" (the chosen members of this ideology) can practice intolerance against those we dislike without the risk of being seen as an intolerant asshole.
Toleration is the first step towards labeling others as "intolerables", such that you can then take actions on them without judgement.
Understanding, is better than tolerance.
