  • Deepl is great for whole sentences but these systems usually have problems with singular words because they don’t understand the context. That’s usually the problem I see with automatically translated sites. E.g. for English to German, if you have a Home button on your site and just let the tool translate “home”, you get these options:

    (Correct one in red, you wouldn’t translate it)









  • I don’t think the paradox of tolerance works here. Popper argued that a truly tolerant society must retain the right to deny tolerance to those who promote intolerance. It doesn’t say kill them, it says don’t tolerate them. Meaning exclude these topics from public discourse or make basic right non-negotiable and unalterable. One of these basic rights being the right to life. Ironically, by calling into question such a basic right, you are actually the intolerant one Popper means.

    Of course, this only applies as long as we are still in a tolerant society. A better argument at the moment especially in the US would be the right to resist.
