There are endless/countless people who the most important thing in their life is to feel empowered by feeling like they are right and someone else is wrong. That they are better, bigger, wiser, and SUPERIOR to others.

Am I? I suppose at points I am, and I do feel safe doing so in a passive-aggressive manner here and other outlets (even non-published). But it does come down to is it more important to try and air and say my peace so others may learn or at least be aware of it?
Sometimes yes, sometime no. Because if I'm talking to a wall, maybe a long time from now more may find it and benefit from that. But in the short term, it does feel like talking to a wall.
But, regardless of little reach it may have in here, or other spots, I do feel especially in here, it is therapeutic FOR ME no matter what.
