People like me? What exactly is that supposed to mean? My race? My occupation? My financial or marriage status?

Pretending to misunderstand the question is a common one

How could I be expected to know the intent of your question when so little context is provided? If you ask such a general question, you can only expect a vague answer based on whatever I guessed was what you wanted. In order to not guess and more accurately answer what you want I have to ask for more detail on what you’re asking. Otherwise I just have to assume you didn’t actually want an answer.

Always end it with an accusation. You people are all alike.
It’s simple. Think about what characterizes you. Think about those who share these characteristics. Think of that group.
What horrible errors are members of that group often guilty of?

Ah, I see. Well I suppose my horrible error is thinking differently from you, then.

I think this is what’s so confusing for most readers… my characteristics don’t put me in a group - some facets of my personality can be grouped with others and a in some sense of the word I’m unique. There are almost certainly people out there with nearly identical sets of views, I guess, but nobody else shares my precise experiences. So what characteristics are you curious about… Hobbies? Race? Culinary Preferences? Age? Interest in literature? There are thousands of ways to group people so uh… the question is extremely vague and feels very reductive.
