I’ve read several explanations, but I think I need it really dumbed down to grasp it.

If you say you tolerate everyone, what do you do when someone comes along and refuses to tolerate others? Do you tolerate their behavior or not? If you don’t tolerate their behavior then you are intolerant and a hypocrite, if you tolerate their behavior then you may fail to “protect” those you are trying to protect by being tolerant.
