How High is Your Tolerance?.mp3
07/04/2019Devon
00:00:21 Something I've been thinking a.00:00:21 Lot about lately is the word tolerance.
00:00:25 Tolerance was the branding used to push the degeneracy we're witnessing today, and it it really is the perfect word to describe what's been taking place and for the past several decades at least.
00:00:41 I was thinking about the word tolerance specifically.
00:00:45 Because I was, I was trying to figure out how our society.
00:00:51 Has come to tolerate.
00:00:53 Things like like trans kids, just as an example.
00:00:58 But the examples are endless.
00:01:00 And and the list gets longer every day.
00:01:04 And yes, our society at large.
00:01:07 Is tolerant.
00:01:09 Of this behavior and and many even embrace and celebrate it.
00:01:15 You might be personally horrified.
00:01:18 Or angry.
00:01:20 But even you?
00:01:22 Are tolerant.
00:01:24 Of this behavior.
00:01:28 Let me let me explain what I mean by this.
00:01:30 What does an alcoholic say?
00:01:33 When they explain that it takes a lot more alcohol.
00:01:36 Than the average person.
00:01:38 In order to to make them feel, feel drunk.
00:01:43 They say they have a high tolerance.
00:01:47 The same is true, if not more so, for opioid addicts.
00:01:52 In fact, heavy users of heroin.
00:01:55 Might have a tolerance so high that if if someone who had never injected heroin before in their life were to use the same dose, their heart would stop.
00:02:07 This phenomenon of tolerance is true of drugs all across the board.
00:02:12 You know, even cigarettes.
00:02:14 The first cigarette I ever smoked.
00:02:17 Made me so dizzy.
00:02:18 I had to sit down.
00:02:21 But a heavy smoker will never experience that sensation.
00:02:28 Because of tolerance.
00:02:32 The human body and mind.
00:02:35 Adapts to foreign substances extremely well.
00:02:39 The brain will rewire receptors and pathways when it's overwhelmed with chemicals and stimulants.
00:02:48 In an attempt to return.
00:02:51 The experience, the user experience back to.
00:02:55 Which is also what leads to dependency when people use, well, pretty much any drug on a regular basis for any extended amount of time.
00:03:06 Once they develop tolerance.
00:03:10 To that drug.
00:03:12 That means they've also simultaneously developed a dependency.
00:03:18 To that drug, an alcoholic, for example, might wake up sober and experience excruciating headaches and and or maybe even violent shakes.
00:03:30 This is the result of their mind and body.
00:03:34 Trying to adjust for the expected presence.
00:03:38 Of alcohol when the alcohol is not there.
00:03:40 That might sound like an extreme example, and people don't get to that level right away.
00:03:45 It takes a long time.
00:03:47 For the mind and.
00:03:48 Body to adjust to being intoxicated all the time.
00:03:54 For it to build.
00:03:56 This tolerance, this dependency.
00:04:00 And because it will take just as long for the mind and body to readjust.
00:04:06 To being sober.
00:04:09 Most addicts.
00:04:10 They they want to just be normal, they.
00:04:12 Want to feel normal?
00:04:13 Again, as quickly as possible, so they just drink.
00:04:18 And the pain goes away, the equilibrium returns.
00:04:22 Because the effects of the drug are now evening out.
00:04:27 What the mind and body was doing?
00:04:29 To counteract it.
00:04:33 Now nothing I just explained is is anything new and I suspect many, if not all of you have first hand experience with some form of this.
00:04:43 And I don't.
00:04:44 Mean you don't have to be a heroin addict or an alcoholic.
00:04:48 It could be something as simple as coffee or even sugar.
00:04:52 Anytime you put something into your mind into your body that alters the minds.
00:04:58 Natural order.
00:05:00 The mind will always attempt.
00:05:03 To return to the natural state, the natural order.
00:05:09 And it will take extreme actions.
00:05:12 To do so.
00:05:14 And when this happens, the the person whose mind.
00:05:17 That this is they're going to perceive that.
00:05:22 As an increase in tolerance because the same amount of substance or or or stimuli no longer makes them feel the same, because the brain's trying to, even it.
00:05:32 So they think, oh, my tolerance has gone up and now I have to increase the dosage to overcome this tolerance.
00:05:40 So they increase the dosage, but like clockwork.
00:05:44 The mind once again tries to even it out.
00:05:48 It tries to.
00:05:51 This stimuli, that's not natural.
00:05:53 It's trying to return the experience of reality.
00:05:57 Back to normal, back to the natural order of things.
00:06:01 And that is the cycle.
00:06:04 Of tolerance.
00:06:06 So what does that have?
00:06:07 To do with your tolerance.
00:06:09 To degeneracy.
00:06:12 When the mind is subjected to degeneracy.
00:06:17 It's identical to being subjected to a drug.
00:06:20 *********** is an obvious example, ***********.
00:06:23 Addicts, just like any other addict.
00:06:26 Will find themselves in this exact same cycle of stimulation, increased tolerance, increased dosage.
00:06:36 The *********** addict.
00:06:37 Will need to increase.
00:06:41 The degenerate nature.
00:06:43 Of their ***********.
00:06:44 In order to experience that same effect.
00:06:48 That a a sex scene and a rated PG13 movie might have have seemed when they first were experiencing pornographic images.
00:06:57 As their tolerance increases, so does the depravity.
00:07:04 In the content they have to consume.
00:07:07 It's exactly like a drug.
00:07:09 And while addiction to *********** is is getting extremely common, let's just say that's an extreme example.
00:07:16 It doesn't matter.
00:07:18 Just like you don't have to be a heroin addict.
00:07:21 To experience this cycle of of stimulation tolerance, increased dosage, you know, like I said before, it could be something as simple as as caffeine in your coffee.
00:07:32 You don't have to be addicted to ****.
00:07:35 In order to experience this cycle of tolerance.
00:07:39 Of the degeneracy.
00:07:41 In society.
00:07:43 When I was a young teenager, a friend of mine got a job at a theater that was near my house and I've.
00:07:49 Always been into filmmaking, so it was it was kind of amazing.
00:07:53 To have this.
00:07:54 Friend that who would and often did sneak me into movies that I wouldn't have otherwise been able to afford to see, but also movies that I just, you know, I wasn't old enough.
00:08:06 To get into.
00:08:08 And I still remember.
00:08:10 Being this bright eyed, although you know not totally innocent kid.
00:08:16 Sitting down.
00:08:18 To watch the movie 7.
00:08:20 With Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, Gwyneth Paltrow and Kevin Spacey.
00:08:25 Big budget, big name.
00:08:30 Excited to watch?
00:08:32 This movie had heard so much about.
00:08:35 Now right now.
00:08:36 I want to focus less on the plot or the meaning of the film and and more just on.
00:08:43 How the movie made me feel.
00:08:47 Now, as a young boy from a religious family where watching rated our movies and and even edgy TV like The Simpsons was strictly forbidden.
00:08:58 So this younger version of myself.
00:09:01 Had essentially no tolerance at all.
00:09:06 To the images and some of the sounds I was about to be subjected to, I still remember sitting in the dark by myself.
00:09:13 Remember the the 9:00.
00:09:14 Inch nails soundtrack.
00:09:17 Creeping in the darkness. Boom.
00:09:21 In the theater.
00:09:23 While disgusting images flashed quickly across the screen.
00:09:28 Now for me personally, the fact that the film makers used 9 inch nails.
00:09:35 Really kind of amplified.
00:09:38 This experience, this this feeling of foreboding, and to be.
00:09:42 Perfectly honest, evil.
00:09:45 And then I was beginning to feel in the theater, you see, music is another example.
00:09:51 Of this cycle, the stimulation tolerance increased dosage that same cycle.
00:09:59 I had experienced this very cycle specifically with 9 inch nails. I bought the 9 inch nails album Pretty Hate machine when I was in grade school because this older kid thought it was cool and was always wearing 9 inch nails T-shirts and I wanted to know what it was all about at the time. I I think I was listening to like 80s.
00:10:19 Synth pop like Depeche Mode Information Society.
00:10:23 I was a nerd, so I loved music that was made with computers and 9 inch nails made music with computers.
00:10:33 So I thought hey this this could be.
00:10:35 Right up my alley.
00:10:37 And it's it's actually it's really.
00:10:42 It's really strange for me to try to explain what I'm about to say because I'm 100 percent, 100% certain.
00:10:49 That the musical tolerance of almost everyone, if not everyone listening right now in my audience.
00:10:58 The musical tolerance that you already have.
00:11:01 It is so high.
00:11:04 Just from this constant bombardment of of subversive degenerate music.
00:11:11 That it's going to almost sound impossible to relate to what I'm about to say.
00:11:17 But I swear as a kid.
00:11:20 Who was brought up as a kid?
00:11:22 You know, we're a little kid on classical music and on hymns at church, uplifting music in my household.
00:11:32 When I listen to the album pretty hate machine by 9 inch nails Trent.
00:11:36 Reznor's first big album?
00:11:40 I couldn't shake the feeling.
00:11:44 That I was participating in something wrong.
00:11:49 That was doing something wrong, something evil.
00:11:54 As I listened to that that tape.
00:11:56 And give an idea of.
00:11:57 How long ago it was?
00:12:00 In the headphones of my Walkman.
00:12:05 I felt guilty.
00:12:08 I felt that at any moment someone someone's going to catch me in this act.
00:12:15 And I was going to get in trouble.
00:12:19 I instinctively knew.
00:12:22 That this music that openly mocked God.
00:12:27 That twisted the structure of.
00:12:29 Of musical notes and arranged sounds in a way that were specifically designed.
00:12:36 To make the listener feel uneasy.
00:12:41 I knew that by allowing this into my mind.
00:12:47 I was doing something wrong.
00:12:52 I was.
00:12:54 Eroding part of myself.
00:12:58 But I couldn't stop listening.
00:13:03 Just like a drug addict, I bought 9 inch nails album after 9 inch Nails album each darker, more explicit and extreme than the one before it.
00:13:15 I remember when.
00:13:16 I first listened to the album broken.
00:13:21 And that came out about two.
00:13:22 Years before the movie 7.
00:13:28 I felt.
00:13:29 Physically afraid.
00:13:33 When I listened.
00:13:33 To that album for the first time.
00:13:35 I was pumped full of adrenaline and cortisol.
00:13:42 It was it was an increase of dosage.
00:13:46 From the album previous.
00:13:51 And I felt just as afraid.
00:13:55 Just as titillated.
00:13:58 In a in a degenerate way.
00:14:01 That I was doing something wrong and and getting away with it.
00:14:06 I was. I was.
00:14:06 Sincerely worried about what would happen if anyone.
00:14:09 In my family.
00:14:11 Discovered what was in my headphones.
00:14:13 I the feeling like.
00:14:15 If they found out what I was listening to, what I was putting in my brain, it was literally the same.
00:14:24 As if my parents were to find a heroin needle in my in my sock drawer.
00:14:31 But even with all that stimulation going on inside of my brain, which I remember vividly.
00:14:38 Like it was yesterday.
00:14:40 I still had.
00:14:42 That still.
00:14:44 Small voice in my head.
00:14:46 Trying to be heard over.
00:14:48 The blaring music from my headphones telling me.
00:14:52 This wasn't right.
00:14:55 I needed to stop.
00:14:59 But of course I didn't stop.
00:15:02 The music frightened and excited me.
00:15:06 Until slowly overtime.
Speaker
00:15:10 It didn't.Devon
00:15:11 And once again.00:15:15 I had to increase.
00:15:17 The dosage.
00:15:18 You know and.
00:15:19 And the sad thing is.
00:15:21 Just with a with.
00:15:22 A lot of drugs.
00:15:25 How the addict becomes an addict because he's chasing that first high.
00:15:29 He wants that first feeling, but we'll never get it again, ever.
00:15:33 The the tolerance is a permanent.
00:15:36 Shift in brain structure, chemistry or whatever.
00:15:41 It'll never be that first high.
00:15:45 The same is true.
00:15:48 With I wouldn't call it a hive.
00:15:49 But the experience.
00:15:52 That I felt listening to this music, if I listen to that album today, I'm not going to.
00:15:56 Have I might feel a little.
00:15:58 Gross at times, but I'm not going to have.
00:16:00 Anywhere near the level of, you know, subdued terror.
00:16:08 That I felt.
00:16:10 That part of me is already dead.
00:16:14 And it's just never it never comes back.
00:16:17 So in the darkness of that theater.
00:16:20 My brain was once again.
00:16:24 Under assault by an increased.
00:16:28 Dosage of subversion.
00:16:32 And as the credits wrapped up, leaving me in.
00:16:34 A state of.
00:16:36 Of unease.
00:16:38 And a feeling like I couldn't quite.
00:16:44 Until Trent Reznor.
00:16:48 Uttered the last line.
00:16:50 Maybe the.
00:16:50 Only line of the song.
00:16:53 That played during the credits.
00:16:57 Almost as if to give you one last chance.
00:17:01 To reject the images and the sounds and the feelings.
00:17:08 That you were about to experience, he says in a mocking inverse of what the audience is.
00:17:18 You bring me closer to God.
00:17:22 He obviously knows what he's doing.
00:17:24 I think it's really it's almost it's impossible really to argue what his intentions were.
00:17:30 In creating this music, it was specifically designed.
00:17:34 To push people further away from God.
00:17:37 And it's now something that I realize.
00:17:42 That maybe I didn't realize then.
00:17:44 Maybe I did.
00:17:47 That, that, that terrifying foreign feeling.
00:17:51 That I've been experiencing that guilt and shame.
00:17:57 That I'd done something wrong and that excitement, the thrill that my mind and soul is building a tolerance to.
00:18:07 It was the absence of God.
00:18:10 It was the rejection.
00:18:12 Of God.
00:18:14 And there is an addictive.
00:18:18 Quality to that.
00:18:19 There's a false sensation of power in that.
00:18:24 And that sensation.
00:18:28 Is what the brain is overstimulated by.
00:18:33 And it's that sensation.
00:18:35 That the brain.
00:18:38 Builds A tolerance to.
00:18:41 To feel that rush.
00:18:44 I had to sit in the dark room.
00:18:49 Despicable images.
00:18:52 From the twisted minds of the film makers.
00:18:55 I had to listen to the sounds of decay.
00:18:59 And unease.
00:19:00 I'd feel a sick.
00:19:04 Kind of terrified delight.
00:19:08 From rejecting God.
00:19:11 In this small but significant way.
00:19:18 And by the way, for the atheists out?
00:19:19 There who are shaking their heads.
00:19:22 Do you deny?
00:19:25 The existence of a conscience.
00:19:29 Regardless of where you think it.
00:19:30 Comes from. Do you deny?
00:19:33 The existence of that still small voice.
00:19:38 That we all hear.
00:19:40 But often ignore.
00:19:43 Would you deny?
00:19:45 Regardless of what you think, the source of that voice is.
00:19:50 That deliberately.
00:19:52 Rejecting that voice.
00:19:56 And indulging.
00:19:58 In the superficial giddiness.
00:20:01 That comes from that rejection.
00:20:04 Would you deny?
00:20:07 That that's the road to hell.
00:20:10 Whether you interpret that literally or metaphorically.
00:20:14 I don't think that you would.
00:20:17 This film, this music.
00:20:21 These are just tiny examples.
00:20:24 They're they're molecules.
00:20:27 In the ocean.
00:20:30 Of the generate propaganda that's been flooding our systems with one goal in mind.
00:20:39 Our tolerance.
00:20:43 Little by little.
00:20:45 People not only tolerate.
00:20:48 The degeneracy that increases with every passing moment.
00:20:55 They want that short lived thrill.
00:21:01 It gets even shorter every time.
00:21:06 Every time they increase that dose so they can have just a little taste.
00:21:11 Of what it was like.
00:21:15 The first time they rejected God.
00:21:19 And the movie 7 did exactly that it takes.
00:21:22 The audience into.
00:21:23 A world full of horror.
00:21:25 And without God.
00:21:26 It it perverts the natural order at every opportunity.
00:21:32 While exposing the audience to sights and sounds that will increase their tolerance.
00:21:40 And their appetite?
00:21:42 For that apprehension that dread.
00:21:46 They can only exist.
00:21:48 Outside the presence of God.
00:21:52 I lost a little bit of myself that night.
00:21:57 Which is why I think it.
00:21:59 So clear in my mind.
00:22:04 After watching that movie, I I quietly snuck out of the theater.
00:22:10 I started walking home.
00:22:14 I remember it so clearly it's it's it's oddly.
00:22:18 One of my.
00:22:19 Clearest memories from that time in my life.
00:22:23 I was nervous.
00:22:27 A little bit paranoid.
00:22:30 Suddenly, the streets that I'd walked 1000 times before seemed dangerous and malicious.
00:22:39 And with every step I took in the dark.
00:22:43 My mind worked feverishly.
00:22:46 To balance out these chemicals that were rushing through my veins.
00:22:50 To counteract.
00:22:54 These foreign.
00:22:58 And with every step.
00:23:01 My innocence was calcified.
00:23:04 With the putrid debris.
00:23:07 From this film.
00:23:10 That I had voluntarily subjected myself to.
00:23:15 Debris that would crystallize.
00:23:19 And remain inside my mind forever.
00:23:23 I may not have known it then.
00:23:26 But at that moment.
00:23:29 I was further away from God.
00:23:32 Than at any other moment.
00:23:35 My relatively short life.
00:23:37 And what's more?
00:23:40 My journey.
