Are we trying to abolish people's concepts, or just to point out some of their drawbacks?

One thing that people do is use words and actions that make them appear "powerful" to the unsuspecting, but which in fact cover their own insecurities. They are just camouflage. If you get sucked into believing that these people are really powerful, you make a mistake, and can help neither yourself nor them.
