From the Greek

misanthrōpos, meaning hating human kind.

There can be a lot said for the qualities of a decent misanthrope. For one, if you look around, you'll find it's difficult to argue they lack good taste.

The written of the article makes this inane observation.

"The fact is that you have to interact with people on a daily basis if you want to be a member of modern society."

Since a true misanthrope has no use for society, why would they 'have to' interact with it?

Technology has made it possible to live and never interact with another human.
