Is the 'patrician' just a prefabricated identity for those 'sophisticate' consumers who wish

Patrician is a quality of book, not a quality of person. Only plebs use it in the latter sense.

I spend most of my time looking for high-end authentic content that reflects my unique personal brand. its way harder than it looks
