I don't have much time this moment but I wonder if what you feel is just a step along the path.
A few more steps and you might reach compassion for them.
I can't say "I like" as in enjoy everyone's company but "I love them" and understanding they are on a path learning far worse lessons than I am this time(having to learn about perpetuating acts against others) makes it easier to view them compassionately. Do I want to associate with them?.... not to much, a bit here and there since I feel that's part of my role but I used to also be very bothered by their behaviour. Now I'm just glad I don't have to go through the lessons they are.
Isolation sucks. We don't seek the same distraction of the masses so we are set apart.
I still think that is preferable than having to live like them, blind.
Never give up on finding kindred spirits if you've given up hope you might also have closed your eyes to them. We need each other.
