Stockholm Syndrome

We humans have an incredible ability to hang onto what's hurting or harming us, argue for it, rationalise it, make it look good even and have little to no awareness we are so doing. So when we come across a glaringly obvious form of the Stockholm Syndrome we are flabbergasted. We've all done it, the S.S. and probably are doing it to one degree or another. It's so easy to see this in others. There's a theme. We've heard it all before. There are stated intentions. I will change. I will stop. Nothing of substance changes except for maybe temporarily.
