Every time you repost this meme, a philosopher weeps

how so

A friend I know who has a philosophy degree got visibly angry when she saw this, because she hates it when complex philosophical/political quandaries are "solved" with a paragraph, especially since all of said paragraph-long solutions start breaking down the second you start thinking about them.

Especially since the Paradox of Tolerance did not require 'solving'. It wasn't a mysterious problem waiting decades for a smart mind to find a solution.
