By them I mean people who see reality through their ethnic/political orientation/religion colored glasses, those who don't think, or act like ostriches, those who censor, obviously programmies, program parents, and their ilk, stepcraftians, most politicians, and that jerk who can't drive who cut you off on the highway.
I'm actually being serious though! Most people never think, never PERCEIVE anything, just see it... again, through their "ME ME ME" colored glasses with their own comfort-oriented false hopes and spin doctoring filtering it before whats left of their rational self in their brain actually gets any of it.
Some things that really get to me is that those assholes have much more collective sway in the direction this government goes than smart people in general do, or people who have actually seen the worst of a lot of what we try to warn everyone about but who turn a deaf ear upon us.
I won't even go into struggling tards, just mention them... 'nuff said.
But honestly, has anyone ever sat and just thought that, and actually fought the urge to say "No, that would be arrogance!"?
And, uh... how do you feel after that realization? More depressed, or a little liberated? Or both?
I guess I'm 'both'...

Oh it bugs me when people affiliate themselves with something (like a political party) for better or for worse; they pull the lever just because there's a D or an R next to it. And then there are the religious freaks who try to tell the rest of us what is right and wrong. Or it could just be a belief system along the lines of I hate that kind of music or I already know what I like. Yes, the people who go through life with deaf ears and blinders... they chap my ass too.

YES! We're better than them! There! I said it.

Yes! Yes we are better than men. Great topic.

Their Not Normal Like Us
He was a cuff-linked, cut throat, tough-talk, boyish man
Hard nosed, Dow-Jonesed, CEO'd -
A snake in the grass -
She was a high class, high-toned, bleached blonde, socio-lite
Lipo-sucked, tummy-tucked, stuck up -
And she was his wife.
He meets a model in LA,
She rolls his Rolls into a lake -
When she gets 30 million, Lawyers take a Holiday!
But they were made for Love!
two halfs, one whole
What Heaven have wrought upon us -
Let no one touch with a ten foot pole!
Their Not Normal Like Us!
Their nothing like none of our friends!
I know we may not be perfect -
Thank God we're nothing like Them!
He was a low-down , low-life, loud-mouth, mannish boy
Out on parole, testosteroned, over-imbibed, under-employed
She was a big-haired, big-boned, tattooed turtle-dove
They had a trashy, TV Talk-show, kind of love.
She's out carousing when he calls -
He writes her name on rest-room walls -
They tell Jerry that their parents really caused it all!
But they were made for Love!
two halfs, one whole
What Heaven have wrought upon us -
Let no one touch with a ten foot pole!
Their Not Normal Like Us!
Their nothing like none of our friends!
I know we may not be perfect -
Thank God we're nothing like Them!
I was standing - by my window - when the two of them walked by -
And I wished a big ole tree would fall, and hasten their demise -
But I stopped myself - I rebuked myself - for I could plainly see -
the two of them, would prob'ly live, and sue the pants off me . . .
He was a gray-haired, grown-up, thirty-something child
Picked some tunes, played the blues, slept till noon -
his parents cried.
She was a folked-out, Girl Scout, mop-top,
renaissance girl -
They formed a band, bought a van, set out to see the world -
They drive a million miles a day! Sometimes they don't even get paid!
I guess they think we're all still back in 1968 -
But they were made for Love!
two halfs, one whole
What Heaven have wrought upon us -
Let no one touch with a ten foot pole!
Their Not Normal Like Us!
Their nothing like none of our friends!
I know we may not be perfect -
Thank God we're nothing like Them!

Hell yeah I (and 'we') are better than Them. It's liberating, depressing, terrifying, and cause for hope all at once......
Welcome to the club.

At the risk of sounding like a dirty hippie, I've met people who, for whatever reason, I thought I was better than, only to have them surprise me later and challenge my prejudices. ("Holy crap, he's not a total idiot after all.")
Yes, there are assholes everywhere, I would HOPE that I'm better than them. Or more accurately, that I'm not as bad as them.
Fortunately, everyone has the potential to un-fuck themselves. Unfortunately, most people don't live up to that potential.
