Anecdotally, the most creative and intellectually daring environments I've seen were also the most tolerant and respectful
A possible causality relationship here is that, if you say disparaging things about a group, 1) you won't benefit from talent from that group, 2) you probably haven't seen much of the world or met many people different from you, which hinders creativity
Also, I'd say people are more likely to come forward with unconventional ideas in an environment that's safe and respectful. So if you want to foster creativity and contrarian thinking, you should in fact crack down on anything that makes people feel less safe or less respected
There is, in fact, a pretty clear difference between contrarian thinking and hate speech -- in many ways, they're polar opposites, not best buddies
In your view, how is any possible tension between daring and respect best resolved?
Simple. It is incumbent upon the "daring" to prove the value / correctness / importance of their "daring" idea to others, thus earning respect. If the "daring" idea fails to persuade a critical mass of people of its societal worth, then maybe it's just a bad idea.
Can you list where these environments exist in the world now?

That has been my experience in the US. But in Canada that is a dream. Thus I wonder how it all started in the US and how can others learn.
