I'm not attacking you, nor am I whining.

You've done both.

It was an honest attempt to get you to look outside yourself, and to maybe consider your condescending attitude, to reconsider what is going on here.

It's not condescending to complement people by saying they are better thinkers than what is being assumed. If you're concerned about me being condescending, don't be so crass as to be condescending to me in order to make your point.

Is this you not addressing any more of the meat of this? If so, very well.
