I don’t think a person would succumb to falsehood as truth but s/he may just accept the falsehood for the sake of coexisting in society, retaining a job, being loved by people around them and other reasons.
The tolerance level varies from person to person. There may be a corelation between tolerance and vulnerability. Chances are that the lesser the level of tolerance within a person, the more the vulnerable s/he becomes. It also depends on how important certain things in life are to a person, his/her priorities in life and his/her values in life. Generally, if someone doesn’t have enough money to pay rent or to buy food, they tend to become more vulnerable. The more vulnerable a person is, there is a likelihood of succumbing to falsehood at least for the sake of survival.

True... and what about the children? Who succumb to whatever "truth" they are taught by those who only have succumbed to falsehoods themselves...
Lots of interesting stuff here. I'll be back. =)
