Toxic Mimics

Toxic mimics take a very real, necessary, creative, life-affirming, and most of all relational urge and turn it -- pervert it -- until it does not further any mutual relationships at all but instead superficial relationships based on domination and control. Toxic mimics can cause people to forget those original relational urges, to forget mutuality is possible, to forget depth is possible, to eventually believe control is natural and desirable.
