       I look at ideas of "petty people" in some Taoist writings, speculate on modern problems, and realize that we need to be suspicions of "followers who think they are leaders" https://www.xenofact.com/2026/01/22/the-petty-people/#taoism #psychology

       @kilroy_was_here you know you're right!  All these people overextending or trying to stand out would doubtlessly include the "petty people."
