The ending was surprisingly heartwarming. Being of this culture-type is isolating, but there's also things about it to feel good about. Many people who might have felt powerless in the past contributed in various ways to our current level of freedom and understanding of the world. And I'm not saying they were necessarily wrong or right to feel powerless, but if you're to take rationalism seriously (I mean that in the sense of giving a shit about correct and unmotivated reasoning) then we're part of a longer tradition.
