This is not apropos of Maritsa's type, but about syn- and contra-flow. How does it make sense that approximately half of humanity are "seething, belligerent outsiders"? I don't think society would function* that were the case. Or are these descriptions supposed to be hyperbolic?

*You can argue that society doesn't function very well, and I won't disagree, but by definition, I don't see how such a large percentage of people can be seen as outsiders. Look around at all the sheeple.
