I have taken the deer in the headlights metaphor and transcribed it into the idea of modern delusionment.  

A deer getting hit was not hit because it was stupid. It gets hit because it had the same education about the world as millions of us did. It's time to reevaluate what we might have seen as failures that weren't a result of our character and attribute them where they belong. Misidentifying the problem is the best way to make sure that problem is never fixed.

I have taken the classic deer in the headlights metaphor and used it to show how millions of people's failures were more likely a statistical inevitability than lack of character. The deer is not stupid if it gets hit by something it has never learned existed. We have effectively been given the same equivalent education about the world as a deer. And, it's no accident. Millions of people from every possible background all failing and struggling in the same ways is not an anomaly.
