Call me cynical when you express your disbelief openly. Call me cynical when you ask them that question directly. People are strange as shit, I'm not assigning any absolute value to how or why people interact with people the way they do, but there is an assumption (well evidenced and demonstrated), when people are in groups, of everyone being "part of the fold". Just because the thought has never crossed your mind does not mean that "it isn't like that". Perhaps you simply prefer to see things differently in order to facilitate a smooth experience. See, you're accomodating, they may be taking inches left right and center, offering nothing in return, but you...are accomodating.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
