Criticism? What would be the point in that? Where did I imply that such a personality type can absorb criticism?



criticism isnt always for the benefit of the target.

Are you not critical of that "personality type"? What point are you trying to make?


The average person enjoys villainizing those who they see as somehow "above" them in standing, whether that's social, financial, or otherwise. They are of course incensed when the people "below" them do the same thing.
