I've listened to a handful of Frank Zappa songs, and each one was excellent.
So I think your idea is pretty ancient. If I follow you correctly, you're kind of talking about Plato's Cave, where people mistake shadows on the wall for reality. Plato's solution is to make excruciating intellectual effort to leave the cave. What's your solution?
My solution basically is to be disliked. Even hated. Though not by my choice. And the reason why is as ancient as humanity. Long ago Plato had something to say on the subject. It was most likely true long before him and is still true. He said, "Nobody is more hated than he who speaks the truth." George Orwell said something similar. Too bad I can't just post a meme of it. But he said, "The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those that speak it."

That's what debate is for.
So far you seem unable to debate.
And your solution is to be disliked and hated? You seem to be able to achieve that with no evidence of truth what so ever.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
