I agree with the rest of your post, but is this the best advice? Between passive-aggressive or straight forward, you should always go with straight forward, especially if you're trying to earn respect. I don't think inka will be taken seriously if she employs mind games.

Only doing it to those you hate reminds me of profiles of people who say "I'm a really nice person, until you get on my bad side. Then I turn into a bitch/prick". My first impression of people that say this is that it's just used as an excuse.

*I don't have that opinion of you by the way. I've read other posts of yours (so have more than a first impression) and I'm sure you don't mean it like that*
