The problem with Popper is that there cannot be a common understanding what’s intolerance and persecution, because they’re at best relative concepts.
Defining what belongs outside the law depends thus on what the people in power want to tolerate. Even Stalin tolerated what he deemed harmless enough.

Who gets to be the lucky one to determine what is intolerant?
Also if anyone read more into Popper, he's phrasing his argument towards the Marxist idealogy.

Who decides what constitutes tolerance?
