It's really an ethical wash. Tweedle-dumb thinks you're rude by using vocabulary he doesn't understand and then displays his own lack of manners by requesting you to accomodate his lack of education. But it's more than that. Let's consider the contempt by:

1. the unathletic for the athletic (stupid jock!)

2. the weakling for the body builder (muscle-bound creep!)

3. the ingnoramous for the well-informed (know it all!)

4. the ne'er-do-well for the prudent and accomplished (overachiever!)

And I could go on and on. How about the contempt error has for truth? Or the devil has for God?

Yes, there is a common thread here. The lesser always protests the greater, the cowardly the bold, the impious the righteous, the children of wrath the children of God. It's a given that as you accumulate skills, accolades, maturity, wisdom, wealth, and respect, people will want to tear you down to their level, envying what you worked so diligently to gain. Your success is a daily reminder of their failure and imprudence. You invested your talent while they buried theirs in the ground.

This even becomes political as we note that an evil tide of coveteousness has swept America. Despised is the entreprenuer who saves up money, takes a risk to start a business, works 16 hour days to get it off the ground, living as a pauper. 10 years later he's a millionaire, one of the "millionaires and billionaires" that President Obama and the envious liberals say need to be punished.

I'm sorry if I seem nebulous, but the topic of this OP has tenticles in many other topics as well. At the heart of this topic is rebellion, the fruits of a reprobate mind. At the heart of it is Lucifer, perpetually making his case that he was kicked out of heaven on a raw deal when in truth, he was expigated because he pursued something that didn't belong to him. The devil's followers will by nature follow suit, hating truth and righteousness, insisting that they are entitled to something they didn't merit, and then using every tactic from deception to blunt force to wrench away for themselves what doesn't belong to them. Is it any wonder that God hates coveteousness and ordained a commandment against it?

I wax philosophical, but this topic is a philosophical goldmine.

Liberalism -- Ideas so good, they have to be mandated.
