 I found myself forced to exist among other humans today.  The experience was awful.

From my as-limited-as-I-can-make-them observations, the participation-trophy generation, as a rule, have absolutely no humility. We have raised a large segment of the population to believe that PRIDE is a virtue, and that the proper way to interact with strangers is pretentiousness.  The only way they know how to interact with other humans is through a lens of smug.

 @edd2f0dd As I'm told, the vast majority of people are unthinking drones. The idea is to learn to ignore them and "find your tribe".

 @edd2f0dd when Pride is spoken of start agreeing that you agree with their white pride ways.  Be quick and gloss over it.
