Actually, Max, I tend to agree that this is mostly correct, at least in
reference to how people act, regardless of how they feel. But even if it's
true, don't feel too bad, Lenin once exclaimed in disgust, "Scratch a
bolshevik and find a Great Russian Chauvinist!" (And for all I know he may
have had a silent postscript to the effect that this was also a
self-criticism.)
