I think nobody likes to be made to feel inferior.
And I think it’s an insecure person who likes to make others feel inferior.
But I think it’s more tolerable when interacting with someone of high status.
Especially with someone who earned their place in that high status.
What I think is the most aggravating mix is someone of low status, who hasn’t achieved anything, with a superiority complex.
I would not begrudge anyone getting infuriated if they detected condescending tones from these types.
