have none of it
Tolerate absolutely not
To have none of it is to refuse to accept, tolerate, or believe something: I tried to explain, but she would have none of it.
The phrase conveys firm rejection—someone won't be persuaded, won't go along, won't entertain the idea.
Often used when someone sees through an excuse or dismisses a proposal outright: He offered to pay her back later, but the landlord was having none of it.
