Seeking some observational data here. [livejournal.com profile] triadruid seems to think I lack self-esteem, and that this lack is holding me back from total world domination. I disagree. I tell him it's lack of ambition.

So if you could, please take a moment and help us decide this issue.

I honestly don't know how to answer this one. Self-Esteem and Ambition are words attached to cultural standards that are more linear and um, relativistic(?) than I think you think...I think.

For starters: When you speak of yourself as a construct existing withing a multiplicity of constructs, then esteem of self over other parts of the construct just doesn't fit. Also: ambition (in my mind, anyway) carries the implication that there's some sort of end-game to be achieved, a worldview which you usually reject.

Baffled, the bunny is. Shutting up now.

Now we see the violence inherent in the system.
