It reads like a rationalization for being mediocre to me, to be honest. The definition of genius by "impact on society" is obviously wrong. And it's easy to selectively quote people who have something bad to say about a person to make them seem like awful people. Also doesn't seem rigorous: are ALL geniuses awful persons? That seems very unlikely. Especially as there may be geniuses in the field of being "good people".
