I've commented before elsewhere, that you *have* to get out of your head their whole prestige hierarchy. You're not done until you don't just know, but feel in your gut, that Harvard is a diploma mill for irreparable incompetents, that the New York Times is an irrelevant tumblr blog, that appearing on the TV news is like appearing on onlyfans, that Disney belongs in the same list as Hustler, that if you're name-dropped by a celebrity apparatchik you need to seriously reconsider your life choices. If you only think this on a conscious level and say it out loud for asspats from like-minded people but don't feel it to be true, you're still playing their game whether you like it or not.
But don't just be a reactionary either. Don't step into the prescribed role of heel. Don't let them make you angry, and don't embody the villain archetype they've planned out for you out of petty spite. That's still playing the game.
You shouldn't be afraid but you also shouldn't be fighting on their terms. You should be building.
I would rather have a plain, red hatted chud who knows what he fights for, and loves what he knows, than that which you call a gentleman and is nothing else.
