Anyone living in a small village or commune, where nearly everyone
is an acquaintance or friend, knows that there's not a single
person or child that is not distinctly different from everyone else.
In such a place, a person has to be accepting else become a pariah of 
sorts, the sort of person who makes a case of his or her difference.

It may take awhile, but things will soon reveal themselves in the USA.
The pariahs will take a fall, much like Eugene McCarthy in the '50s
or Trump in 2020.  I wouldn't be surprised to see Trump have to
spend time in jail, genius pariah that he is..
