Perverted Tolerance

For most people in this generation, the words in the title above scan poorly, if at all. The juxtaposition of the concepts of tolerance, perversion and slavery is unheard of today. Reading them, the computer that is your mind sends up a message box saying, "There is no file for these ideas, would you like to create one?"

Would you?

You should, your life depends on it.

How?

Let's learn from the experience of catatonic people. Some things, like fire on the skin, can only be tolerated at risk of life and limb. Even a five year old knows that people who tolerate a direct flame to the skin are seriously defective in survival skills. Take that kind of tolerance to its logical conclusion and you will find victims of catatonia, utterly oblivious to even the most life-threatening invasive marauders. Catatonics are enslaved to tolerance.

Catatonics have an excuse: they went out to lunch and never returned. We don't have that excuse. If we tolerate life-threatening invasive marauders, we, in all our conscious glory, must find a word other than catatonia to describe our slavery to tolerance.
