Gotcha
IMO, Paranoia, a healthy one is necessary for survival. However once this fine line is crossed there are two outcomes - victim(s) of persecution complex OR of illusions of grandeur. Politics come into play to keep shifting and shaping that fine line to control people.
Illusions of grandeur lulls one into sumgness and complacency and while the other pits them into an open ended fight for their perceived rights (that were wronged) and society is in turmoil.
The tragic outcome of this is, the genuine and real grievances on both sides go unaddressed and unanswered, while the vested interests make hay.
ANy further thoughts?
