Sometimes "tolerance" is just a word for not dealing with things.

New Find it also a rich vein
If not quite the Mother Lode.. for exercising that part of mentation seeking new angles; that when it is simply, good fiction - the Sci- part is *not* to be confused with BEMs (!) er bug-eyed -- for the non-partakers. At best we get a view of,

Homo-sap at work, lying to self - proudly! (to "make the illusion palatable" ? most often)

As mentioned, I'm recently perusing a pithy anthology of 'dystopias' - ideas and categories of same. (Alas more and more I find: we've made our own impending dystopia! aided and abetted by hateful purveyors of individual brands of Righteousness.. natch.)

{sheesh} forget Right; settle for - functional. Please.

how do I get outta this chicken outfit, alive or dead?

PS - Elron was about (in his own words) best way to make Big $ is to start your own religion. He got that right, obviously.
