      It’s not a paradox at all if you view society and government as a social contract entered by all parties. The conditions for being protected by the tolerance provided for in the Constitution is that you extend that tolerance to everyone else. The intolerant have breached that contract and are therefore no longer protected by it.

        Yes, tolerance itself is valued, and if you’re not tolerant, you need not be tolerated by others.
