Gotta love putting in the time and energy to learn about/connect to the place you live and finding that even after 20 years, people STILL presume you’re completely ignorant/clueless like a new arrival, and then insultingly talk down to you on the basis of that presumption. (And love it even more when the context is a power imbalance in a toxic social environment where even people who point out obvious, clear facts get shouted down, and where just pointing out the presumption is incorrect might trigger all kind of punitive nonsense.)
