…but they hide so well

        This paradox was articulated by philosopher Karl Popper in The Open Society and Its Enemies (1945),[1] where he argued that a truly tolerant society must retain the right to execute those who promote intolerance.

        At least, that’s what the op apparently read.

          You intentionally misquoted. You wrote:

          where he argued that a truly tolerant society must retain the right to execute those who promote intolerance.

          But the real quote is:

          where he argued that a truly tolerant society must retain the right to deny tolerance to those who promote intolerance.

          Why did you do this?

              I suggest making edit obvious to those reading who don’t know the original source. Something like:

              where he argued that a truly tolerant society must retain the right to deny tolerance to the right to execute those who promote intolerance.
