For a tolerant society to keep its tolerance it must be completely intolerant of intolerance. Paradoxical existence at its finest however technically an achievable goal.
First person kind of has a point though, albeit awkwardly worded (or maybe I just misunderstood, I can't read minds obviously). Free speech is one thing but putting an uneducated, bigoted, baseless opinion on the same level as a structured analysis from someone who's an expert on the discussed matter because "well everybody has their own opinion" is wrong. It happens a lot in the media nowadays which is why so much bullshit gets through, like the Trump pee scandal or Pizzagate. I also saw a post just a few minutes ago about how Fox news hired a guy to pretend he's a Swedish govt official (and apparently they made him talk shit about refugees) but I haven't checked the facts yet so I won't make any assumptions, I'll just say that I wouldn't be surprised if it was true.
I say let people speak but then don't hesitate to tell them they're wrong, and if they start crying about free speech, well you can just tell them that freedom of speech doesn't equal freedom from consequences.
Opinions are for things like not liking opera or preferring Swiss cheese to cheddar, not whether or not other humans deserve their fundamental rights. Also, bigotry is not about judging someone for their opinion, it's about judging them for something they can't change. You can change your opinions.
