Let me see if I can help you with this.  Your original statement reads:
Usually, the intolerance that I am intolerant of is triggered, not by
people who don't think the way I do, but rather by people who don't
think at all."

If you simply change the word "triggered" to the word "found" and the
two occurrences of the word "by" to the word "in", the statement is
eminently more sensible.

Usually, the intolerance that I am intolerant of is found, not in people
who don't think the way I do, but rather in people who don't think at
all.

Don't you think?  :)

I didn't say that at all AND I didn't use the word "one".

Few writings make sense when they are misread.
