>The point is that a liberal pluralistic society needs to learn to accommodate people with different worldviews. A key part of that is getting people to understand that their own worldview is subjective, and that other worldviews are possible and acceptable.
Yes, however that liberal pluralistic society can't abide incompatible hegemonic worldviews, as they will seek to destroy that liberal pluralistic society using the very mechanisms that make it viable - freedom of speech, equality, a belief in freedom, value of diversity, etc.
Look at what people like Mike Johnson believe about politics and society. Look at project 2025. These are people who are so absolutely convinced of their worldview and societal ideal (an ideal compatible with a liberal pluralistic society) that they will use and abuse all levers of power available to them to forcibly foist that worldview upon the rest of us.
