That's silly. Society functions pretty much how it's supposed to. If it didn't then humanity would have probably gone extinct. Whether or not you can acclimate to it isn't necessarily society's fault. This is one of those things that bothers me about my fellow rejects. Sure, normal is subjective, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. Whenever I see people say things like that it just sounds like they're trying to rationalize there own issues so they don't feel like a freak.
