Multiculturalism is a lie insofar as it demands that others accept me. It is, by nature, my ability to relate to a variety of others; not an attempt to make others embrace me.

Ptolerance
Ptolerance: ˈtäl(ə)rəns/
(noun)
1. pretend tolerance (phony tolerance, pirate tolerance, pseudo tolerance); tricky because it sounds the same as “tolerance” but there’s a silent “p” making the word indistinguishable from its homophone, even in identical contexts
2. a supposed ability to allow a practice, belief, existence, or occurrence without actual implementation of such
3. accepting or enduring progressive and/or appealing elements while rejecting others
4. the capacity to tolerate everything except for intolerance
