Very nice write up. Haven't read "Notes from the Underground" but your analysis is similar to what I came up with after reading "Crime and Punishment". In this case it is about the pretentious, hyper conformist redd*tor while in CaP it can be linked to the Tate inspired, materialistic obsessed, "entrepreneur".
Took me years to understand what Dostoyevsky was talking about. Perhaps because back when I first read it this kind of behavior was not as common.
But Dostoyevkey's books are the medicine for the exact same disease that we are facing now.
