Don’t try to “paradox of tolerance” this situation. Lol.
The solution is to not tolerate bigots.
You don't see yourself as a bigot I guess? Just other people. :)
I do not see myself as a bigot, correct. I also don’t tolerate bigots.
I do my best to create non bigoted spaces by not tolerating bigots.
I recommend you take a look into what the paradox of tolerance is. It’s not too complicated of a subject in the scope of moral philosophy as a whole.

If you are interested in moral philosophy I could recommend a few books if you like.
We share that view then! I also don't see myself as a bigot and I don't tolerate them. So we shouldn't waste each other's time. :)
But you happily tolerate misinformation and bigotry. Don't try to present that as a virtue.
