Rather than simply bowing out, I've decided to poke the bears until I'm booted. I'm going to do this, by accusing the bears of engaging in behaviour I myself pursued, without restraint, for years.
Sure, I could have risen above it, but I figured that the bears should be held to a higher standard. Rather than trying to raise the standard of interpersonal interactions, I chose to be a part of the problem I now point my self righteous finger at.
So to all those that have tasted the sour grapes, I encourage you to also put yourself up on a cross. Let me be the first.

There, I now hang upon the cross, judging those with whom I built a culture of elitism. Join me, fellow pleebs, and ignore the years of abuse I heaped upon thee!

Rule #1: Have some credibility. You may have a point. I might even agree with it, but I call shenanigans on the whole martyr bit. Be the change you want to see.
