I don’t think we have to tolerate those people though either.

It’s called the paradox of intolerance and was pretty simply solved:

Tolerance is a contract. If someone isn’t participating, you do not have to participate with them.

In fact, I think that being tolerant to the intolerant is akin to being complicit. Who would want to tolerate people who are disrespecting your established cultural norms of freedom and tolerance??

Disrespectful + anti American + dated + impedes progress
