Have I argued that anyone is out to get me? That doesn't sound like something I would say. You seem to have a lot of ideas about my views or motivations which I don't share. You should read less between the lines, and more from them, because I don't really think I'm speaking ambiguously, here-- you started off with anxiety, then insecurity, and now a persecution complex-- are we moving toward a full identity disorder, here? Are you going to accuse me of secretly worrying that I'm not a pretty pretty princess, or that I'm gay and don't want to admit it? I don't feel persecuted-- mainly I feel annoyed that people think they can get away with this shit, and reasonably often try to, and that there's always a risk that some jerkoff with a card to play will destabilize the business which I've worked so hard to build up.

Isn't it just possible that I think these people are entitled people of low moral character, and that they are gaming whatever memes or social constructs they can to dodge responsibility, and feed off proxy power when they don't have the discipline, the intelligence, or the personal character to claim real power of their own?
