INFERIORITY COMPLEX; AGGRESSION
Aggressive behaviour?
Having an inferiority complex means having "an unrealistic feeling of general inadequacy caused by actual or supposed inferiority in one sphere, sometimes marked by aggressive behaviour in compensation."
An inferiority complex consists of feelings of not measuring up to standards, a doubt and uncertainty about oneself, and a lack of self-esteem.
It is often subconscious and is thought to drive afflicted individuals to overcompensate, resulting either in spectacular achievement or extremely asocial behavior.
"A "superiority complex", is a psychological defense mechanism in which a person's feelings of superiority counter or conceal their feelings of inferiority."[3]
"Children reared in households where they were constantly criticized or did not live up to parents' expectations may also develop an inferiority complex."
"A primary inferiority feeling is said to be rooted in the young child's original experience of weakness, helplessness and dependency. It can then be intensified by comparisons to siblings, romantic partners, and adults.[5]
A secondary inferiority feeling relates to an adult's experience of being unable to reach a subconscious goal of security and success to compensate for the inferiority feelings.
According to Alfred Adler, "Everyone has a feeling of inferiority.
"But the feeling of inferiority is not a disease; it is rather a stimulant to healthy, normal striving and development.
"It becomes a pathological condition only when the sense of inadequacy overwhelms the individual and, far from stimulating him to useful activity, makes him depressed and incapable of development."[4]

It is not an inferiority complex if people do not see you as a leader: it is simply accepting reality. Gaining status does not mean you actually DO anything worthwhile, it just means you control those who DO have inferiority complexes. That is not superior, it is just machiavellian.
I have spent life being brutally crushed for thinking the best of others, not the worst. Every time I ever trusted anyone to behave decently at work, they behaved like conniving little scumbags.
So I know how the world works, does that make me inferior, for refusing to treat people like prisoners, slaves or servants?
