I felt the analogy was very relevant to my point I've been stating all along--criticising a person's character vs an object or opinion. Again, beating a dead horse I suppose....
I have instead realized that overall this place might be too crazy for me. Dr. Bob encouraged me to work on whatever issues I have here, and I had thought about it and it seemed like a good idea, and I have tried it out. (such as being triggered by others stating I may be 'too sensitive')
But I have found a place where others would easily grasp my opinions with understanding insted of channeling anger my way. There are a lot of differences in opinions there as well, but a different level of psychologically mindfulness enables me to fit in better. Much like my relationship with my therapist-where he does not always agree with my perceptions, but instead of criticizing me for them, understands my reasoning and helps me learn more about myself by recognizing and discussing both my positive traits and possible distortions in perceptions.
