As the Republic of Eyeth’s constitution say, “in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice…” What does justice look like? Today, we’ll be diving in and explore the filth culture.
The filths have a horrendous mutation that would cause incredible suffering. Know these vibrations you sometimes feel? Imagine that amplified, all the time, these vibrations assaulting you at warp speed from all angles. The filths has the audacity to call that abomination a ‘fifth sense’! Fifth? More like filth. At the basic level, it is nothing more than a sense of touch.
As we all know, the Republic of Eyeth adheres to the Divinity religion which stipulates the notation that there are five stages of life. The life is as follows: the life begins in the womb. Upon the departure from the womb, the life then goes through three stages: youth, adult, elder. Finally, they enter the Fifth stage where they leave the Eyeth. There’s a popular folklore where the Divine Fifth would appear and escort you to the Fifth stage.
Apparently, the filths have this ridiculous internal joke where a parodist Divine Filth would appear and grant them the fifth sense. If that was to happen to normal people, surely the torturous assault of the vibrations would drive them to the Fifth stage anyway.
In the last three to four decades, the filths have actively been trying to deny the fact that they are going through extreme suffering, living in a world where they are constantly shaken. As one inspiring filth said, “You don’t have to feel sorry for us, we’re proud of who we are!”
This performative progressive revolution of which they’re actively trying to rebrand themselves from ‘filths’ to ‘orals’. I fundamentally disagree with their arguments that it is more accurate to who they are.
By calling themselves ‘oral’ people, they are doing themselves a disservice. Oral means sex via mouth, not an abomination of your glorified suffering. True, masochism is an aspect of being kinky…but like, how is assaulted by vibrations your entire life as a result of a horrendous mutation kinky? If they want to ‘reclaim the word’ by implying that they’re sex objects, that’s entirely up to them.
As sad, though not surprising it is to say this, the filths often don’t live until the elder stage, instead skipping right from the adult stage to the Fifth stage due to the horrible assault of vibrations wearing down their will to live.
Fortunately, for this terrible condition, there is a cure, albeit a imperfect one. There is a new innovative technology called cochlear interception- or CI. In short, this amazing device intercepts the vibrations directly from the cochlea and destroy the vibrations in the process.
It is astonishing in how much it relieves the suffering. One parent, Jaine O’Disajokeo, had said “when I found out my baby is a filth, I was so upset. I cried, and begged the doctor to fix my baby. When the doctor told us about the CI, they warned us that it could kill the baby in the process. And I thought, ‘well, either way, my baby will be free from suffering.’”
She continued on to say, “My child has frequently complained to me that their CI was uncomfortable and that they’d rather be filth and go to a filth school. How is that possible? I told them definitely not, I’m not sending my precious child to a school full of mutants who spends their entire life in suffering.”
The human brain is truly amazing, as denial can be a very powerful thing. It appears to be the case for O’Disajokeo’s child. “Typical rebellious teenagers not wanting to wear their CI’s” when O’Disajokeo was pressed about their child’s disdain for CIs.
In summary, the filth culture is quite distinct from ours, built entirely on the denial of their extreme suffering. It is inspiring, but in a sad way.
