Ok perhaps paradoxical isn't the right word, self-refuting maybe?

Sorry, it was similar enough that you triggered my automatic "tolerance is not a paradox" response. I'm sure you weren't trying to justify all forms of "complaining" with pseudo-intellectual BS so, please forgive me for lashing out :)

I agree, there's a funny thing about it, but to me it's more optimistic ;) It's like a very good point is being made, it's not perfect but, somehow, that point could be used to sharpen itself.

There was no offense here though, he could have just chosen optimism and tried to see the best in these people but he choose not to.
