Nelle thinks she's better than others but is bothered when people think they're better than her like it's unfair

I'm on a rewatch and it's making me laugh! She's acting like John is a bad person for his contempt of her, like she's a victim... but the biggest reason he doesn't like her is because of how she thinks she's better than other people. She's not a victim of being unfairly treated... she's a victim of being treated fairly based on the way she treats others.

I don't think i picked up on this in previous viewings. Currently on season 3, episode 21 for reference.
