There is no need for expensive gifts in order to win over the pseu-
dointellectual sycophant. While they may appear to be greedy, they do
not actually expect a very lofty position or title. The most important
thing to satisfy them is to receive the approval of those from whom
they seek it because their true sense of inferiority is actually in the face
of those people. Even if they become involved in the running of their
own countries or become the CEO of a very large company, they are
still unable to shake off that feeling of inferiority toward those to
whom they behave as pseudointellectual sycophants. That means that
they can never escape the desire to be liked and approved of by them.
Since their aim is to be liked, approved, honored and esteemed,
hearing things like “Well done, that was a good piece of writing” or “That
was a good speech,” cause them to walk on air. They have no hesitation
about writing negative things about their own circles, loved ones or
countries in order to hear the words, “Well done.” They ruthlessly
denigrate and look down on everyone. The main subject of their wri-
tings generally consists of such denigration. They imagine that the
more they speak out against Muslims, the more they foolishly criticize
Muslims and the more they look down on Muslims, the more praise
they will receive. They even tend to put on airs along the lines of,
“Look, nobody can criticize Muslims as much as me. I know them best and I
put them down best.” Or they imagine that the more they denigrate their
own countries as “antidemocratic,” “backward” or “oppressive,” the
more “first-rate” analyses they will be producing. The way that a great
many writers denigrate their own countries to foreigners and look
down their noses at their own people is based on sending the message
that “I am different from them. I am in fact one of you.” The aim behind
their writings and analyses is not to produce genuine criticisms and
solutions, but to make propaganda and hear the words “Well done.”
Of course Muslims or the countries they live in may very well
