Then your perception is false, as well as being unwarranted, arrogant and just plain rude. Any approbation you incur as a result is therefore perfectly justified. For example, would you like me to tell you where I would be tempted to push a chain were you to say this straight to my face?
You strike me as the sort of person who drives on the wrong side of the road and expects everyone else to get out of the way. Or who goes into, say, a biker bar wearing a t-shirt saying 'all bikers are paedophiles' and then wonders why his face keeps attracting broken bottles and pool cues.
