In general, nerds have a history of being treated badly, bullied even, by the people you are talking about.

They arent around people because people harm them more than help them.

    I remember the game Bully extended this take. The main character has no beef with the nerds, and helps them, but they still extend their victim complex to him and antagonize him.

    Basically, it's a problem with using the generalized word "people" in statements like that.
