Hi Vineeto,
Thank you for your replies, there is so much here I don’t know where to start! 
Well maybe with the objection I just had whilst reading the quote about Richard’s innocence and how others would “deposit ordure on it”. I have certainly observed this with the writings of all the actually free people, in that they cannot ‘bite’. I remember even some discussions on here between Srinath and Claudiu, and although there was perhaps aspects of peasant mentality which were displayed in Srinath’s writings there was still no possibility for him to ever ‘bite’. Which of course this is incredible because it means that peace is guaranteed.
But something does not sit well with ‘me’ here, in that ‘I’ clearly still have some investment into ‘standing up for myself’, in that it is not just about walking away with the goodies but it is about winning the ego-battle.
And it seems it is because I cannot allow the other to continue on with their modus operandi. That yes I understand that I can walk away with the goodies and yet in the process of walking away with the goodies I don’t want to re-affirm the modus operandi of the other as being correct, sensible etc.
I will give an example, the other day I was driving out of the area near my house which has a 20mph speed limit, I got to a junction and I looked to see a car quite a distance ahead and so made the judgement to pull out. Now had the car been going at anywhere near 20mph I would have had sufficient space to come out, and yet because they were clearly going way past the limit the car ended up being rather close to me and beeping at me. So this was just a complete reversal of accountability, in that the speeding driver is beeping at someone for a problem that only exists because they are themselves going way past the speed limit.
So my response in this situation was to slow down to exactly 20mph so the speeding driver would be forced to follow me at the correct speed. So it is like trying to change the other, but then on the other hand how can I allow someone to be rewarded for acting in such a way?
