People who feel that they have been neglected and forgotten yearn for a narrative — even an invented fictional one — that will make sense of the anxiety they are experiencing, and promises some sort of redemption.

A fictional story that promises to solve one’s problems is much more appealing than facts and “reasonable” arguments.
