If you want to take that immune system analogy to the logical conclusion that I see, its this: An immune response can be good or in some cases very bad. Entitlement mentality creating an assumption of exploitation where one doesn’t actually exist feels to me is more akin to a allergic response or an autoimmune response which creates a harm more than a help. It’s an inappropriate response.


I mean I didn't exactly use autoimmune specifically, but yeah, I did go that direction.
