Attention All Degenerates

To the world's degenerates,

Although you may be triggered by the impulse to act in opposition to a more civilized approach, I must warn you that your behavior will not bear a favorable outcome. For it is only by acting in a divine manner can one's actions yield divine consequences. And lest we forget, though obstacles may not appear at first I assure you they will in the long run.

A person with poor standards would fall below societes ideals and hence expectations when it comes to certain things, but easily may be above it in others. There is also the problem of the illusion of power versus real power. The illusion is what gets most people to believe in themselves enough to perform a task on a regular basis if need be and live up to societies expectations. The real power comes when that person raises their standards and expectations above societies and lives up to those. But then, real power can also be fostered by illusive power. If the source of the illusion is beyond societies expectations then the person would have a greater standard by which to measure their exercises of power and so their comfort level for performance would increase. For example, athletes, millionaires, heroes, etc. (the real) as opposed to gangs, druglords, strippers (the illusion)...

You might want to rethink that one. There's been some not so nice athletes, millionaires, and even heroes.
