It's better to be condescending compared to being a complete dumb ass. This is a rather subjective topic. Some people more than deserve sarcastic remarks, comments and Hell even the attitude associated with it. In some ways, society is filled with a lot stupidity and even encourages stupid as opposed to encourage intelligence. Here's an extremely condescending thought about slum landlords which knowingly neglect or out of pure stupidity neglect faulty electrical panels in the properties they rent. When a house or apartment burns down, not only can it destroy the tenants personal and not so personal property, it can perhaps even kill them. However, it also frequently damages the neighboring properties. It put's the risk of firefighters lives on the line. Which can have a deep impact on the families of those involved in putting out the fire. It also can damage the actual firefighting equipment and vehicles as well. Some of it is rather pricey and can't be replaced extremely quickly. Which may effect the fire companies ability to respond to other fires for the next week or so. All this the result of some Dumb ass landlord, which is as stupid and careless as box full of fucking rocks. Hell yeah, I actually feel, think, believe and know I'm way smarter and more intelligent than somebody like this. The politically correctness of pretending everybody is truly equal on all levels, really in annoying. How I view dumb ass neglectful people like this, I know without any doubts very condescending. In fact, I wish society was way way way MORE condescending towards Stupidity than it is. Perhaps, if it was...more people would wake the fuck up... and start using what's inside their head. However, I do understand the instant connection people make when dealing with a condescending attitude... that they will label it as being narcissistic without taking a look at their own game and how screwed up it. People in general shift between a give set of personalities and personality traits. However, generally focus and shift between a couple fairly easy. Many people have some static idea or concept about personality. People's personalities can somewhat change and adjust according to the environment, people around them and yes also their own emotions and intelligence, or even emotional intelligence. This thread was started using a "box model" in an attempt to fit things into a nice static compartmentalized view. Anybody can be extremely condescending under the right circumstances, situation and people involved. Being condescending in itself, may or may not be a bad thing at times. It can be pretty effective at times. Along with the sarcastic wit and comments flying around. It can also be extremely mean and painful and cruel. So, it's all about context in my opinion. You need to ask and think about WHY is somebody being condescending to understand the mystery here. A group generalization, or blanket labeling like this won't equally apply or work. Perhaps if you replace the word "Dominants" with "People". You'd get "People being condescending - personality trait?" I'd like to stress the fact that personality is a little bit more of a dynamic thing, which tends to flex. Some of the nicest people in the world, which would give you the shirt off the back... have their own condescending moments..with their own flavor of condescending personality when they are in that mode.
