Resist does not mean tolerate.
It means (combat) OR (not allowing the action or effect of something, on the other thing).
So the answer must be (welcome) because by (not restricting), you (welcome) something (acceptance) is a later issue. Which depends on the individual.

I think it's accept, because resist means oppose.
