Wow. You just blew my brain out of my skull. I wonder whether there is some sort of occasional proclivity in some people with psychosis toward a greater sensitivity to concepts of social injustice, for lack of a better phrase. Neuropsychiatrically, that is. Maybe I am already, was already, wired in such a way, clearly, in me, from early childhood--no doubt about that--to be aware of and to notice cruelty, social injustice, general meanness. Some kind of heightened sense of "unfairness," whatever that is.

My mother was a tough, hardass, rancher's daughter from West Texas. Her favorite saying to my in all of childhood was: "Cyclist, you are just too sensitive."

You know what? I am pretty sure she was right.
