    Only the loud social people who wouldn’t survive without the help of various freaks (who solve disasters and predict crises and say “told you so”) are normal. While those freaks should be grateful for being not completely useless for their normal society. Of course their usefulness is evaluated by the normal people’s measure, which ignores disasters, crises, deep mistakes, structural faults and other such things. Because among normal social people every victory has many fathers and any defeat is an orphan (but they secretly suspect that those freaks who mitigated its harm are to blame).

    The way for comfortable existence is knowing that they, normal people, are wise and kind and don’t blame us for being the freaks we are. Though they are still a bit sore at us for all those problems in the reality they chose, like computer programs still not writing themselves and not understanding human language. But they are also magnanimous and forgiving.
