comparing oneself to others, and vice versa, is the absolute worst thing anyone can do. It's always a dead-end street, paved with distorting mirrors, and it leads nowhere but downwards.

Different from whom?
Let me rephrase that: from whom exactly?
To establish a "difference", the parameters of what is being compared must be very clear and precise.
How do you know what other people question or not?
How do you know their minds?
And of course, most importantly...
Sheeple are the masses.
... who preciselyare "the masses"?
An ocean of individuals only seems a "mass" to an undiscerning eye - which is what cost many a king his head...
From my point of view, "the masses" are little more than a rhetorical (and now largely obsolete) device that demagogues used to manipulate people into believing they are/were less than individuals - or at least powerless as individuals.
