Seems a bit harsh.
I'd say: People are the problem and the solution. Look around, most of our problems are caused by other people. People will be the ones to provide solutions. People = Both Hell & Heaven.
It is strange to realize that all one's "anti-social tendencies" are now survival strategies. The less human contact the better. The lonely path is the safer path. Time for silent contemplation. So necessary. We are left to our own devices: reading, dreaming, living in a world of solo actors. Living inside our heads. A long path of discipline. Smart. Safe. Aware of germs, religiously washing our hands, staying clean, clear-headed in everything we do and say.
At the same time, living this solo trip, you realize we are all the same. We are all in this together. And if we are to solve the major and uncountable problems confronting our species, we must work together. One great community.
Still a touch of lonely paranoia seems rational & reasonable. We are all in this together, but of course, we are also in it alone...
