That it's about exchange.
They suspect a potential adversary and bad intentions behind every differing opinion.
Why do so many claim to be "open-minded" when they can't tolerate the slightest differences?

Why do so many claim to be "open-minded" when they can't tolerate the slightest differences?It seems that in emotionally charged areas such as environmental and climate protection, nutrition, mobility, minorities and women's rights, it is often not enough that I also consider the problem to be really urgent—no, I am also expected to favor the same solutions and integrate them into my life in the same way. Otherwise, I am already considered to be among the opponents and the establishment.

Why?
@weit_im_westen Oh, yes. The "everyone must do everything exactly as I would, and everyone who doesn't and everyone who talks to someone who even considers anything else is an enemy" mindset.
Deep sigh.
