just brainwashed losers in the scheme of life.

I used to talk to people and one of my professors asked me why ... he said they are a waste of your time, they will never understand you, and they don't want to. You must learn to ignore them and walk on, because they will drag you down, they are negative energy in the scheme of life ... something like that.

Some people wander in lower orbs of life, this has been so for eons, and they will wander there forever. Some can rise up, but many stagnate there. In my lifetime I've never seen it more prevalent than over the past decade or so. Your post about her was a fine example of such.
