This is diving into the Paradox of Tolerance (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance). This posits, should we tolerate the intolerant? Comparing Harvey Milk, who fought for increased tolerance of a group, vs Moldbug, who argues against increased tolerance of another minority group, doesn't exactly follow.
I'm uncertain if I'm willing to consider the position with Moldbug intolerance, because of the paradox listed. This is not someone with a pro-gun or anti-tax or some other form of political speech that are culturally arguable without being an intolerant viewpoint against a group of people.
Still, that's just pointing out the difference. I feel like a bit of a fence sitter to be honest. That being said, I have left jobs because of a boss that had, what I considered, intolerant viewpoints of LGBT and non-white people.
