Been like this for thousands of years. Next time you read a story about a great character in history, know that they may have in fact been an ancient Elon Musk or ancient Trump, just inflating their own deeds and surrounded by people more than willing to carve their names into stone.
Reality is far more banal and irritating than we want it to be, that's why so many of us spin up wild narratives and live in that world of drama and suspense instead of doing more to take care of the reality we share and live in.
