There are two kinds of tolerance. You can tolerate because you see value in many things, or at least value the creativity and effort that went into making those things. Or you can tolerate because you see value in nothing.
Unfortunately, too many of the people who talk about tolerance these days are in the latter category.
Cf. R' Kook (Ein Aya Brachot 58, Letter 384)
