    What delicious delusion, wish I could be there to watch you when it collapses

    the vast majority of presidents since the advent of photographs in newspaper have nearly always been the tallest

    Height has a powerful psychological effect, on the possessor and the witnesses

    But here you are pretending the stigma doesn’t exist

      That’s exactly what I’d expect a diddy man to say.

      Also, what’s supposed to happen when my delusion collapses?

        That the majority of humans operate rationally, and not on some monkey tribe level pseudo consciousness.

        All the cute little things people without power tell themselves to sleep well at night, that humans are inherently rational, or that people aren’t judged on appearances, and that truth and justice always prevails if you just wag your finger ‘naughty naughty’ hard enough.

        The delusion that we are anything more than naked apes fresh from the savanna evolution-wise and the tallest and loudest will always get preference.

        Short men are judged and will always face a deficit no matter what, which is why they go the extra mile

        Same reason fat people usually have good personalities

        They have to do it to find a way to be equal because sure as fuck society won’t let them have an equal footing out the gate

        That’s the delusion you need to get over, no one bothers looking for hidden qualities anymore, no one has the time
