Being tolerant to each other is great, because like you said, there will come a time when that person is tolerant to you in return.
Unless they're in your apartment building on a one night rental. Then, you'll never see them again and they have zero incentive to stay on your good side.
- honzzz 13y agoI think you are completely missing the point. The favour does not necessarily need to be returned by the same people. It's about tolerance accepted as general social value. Lets say that tolerance is some kind of a deal with society - lets all try to be tolerant and we will all benefit - we all have to do our part and if we do we build something together and we are more likely that others will tolerate our annoying habits (or sexual orientation or religion or whatever). Also you could say that this specific ' AirBnB tolerance deal' could be more like please tolerate my guests because I need their money right now and I will tolerate your [something annoying that you certainly do].
- jbooth 13y agoI think it's a bit much to expect a moral and social revolution just to support AirBnB. People are nice to people they're going to see again and generally indifferent/inconsiderate towards people they won't see. That goes double for new york.
