This eternal verity from thanekos:

There's never yet been a definition of " ordinary people " without some kind of self-aggrandizing exclusion.

Huh. I figure I'm among the ordinary humans. I am not rich, not the smartest human (hey, I met Stephen Hawking - I know I'm not THAT smart), and certainly not the most athletic or beautiful. I'm me. I like me just fine.

It used to be more common. Far less so in the last half-century. This conveniently keeps us divided and discourages mutual respect and coming together to fight against the ongoing class war against ordinary people.
