Me: I don't understand why certain other people behave the way they do.
Spouse: some people don't care to understand things or think about what others experience.
Me: I KNOW! And that's what I keep *trying* to understand.
Spouse: see, the more you do that, the farther you get, because you try to understand other people, and they don't.

You point out what frauds & monsters they are, and these people just like them better for it.
What the fuck is that about?

Yeah, that's a pretty good explanation for a lot of it...and it explains why it makes no sense to me. I don't fucking understand hierarchy: I don't comprehend how status could be related to a person's worth or rights.
Goddamn. Hierarchy and "authority" really are the biggest dangers to human society, aren't they?
