Sorry, didn’t mean to send that yet. Nearly all people are fucking evil, self-serving monsters. They do good to feel good or to receive good. Very few people do good because they are good. It’s actually very depressing. But oh well.
I used to think this way when I was miserable and disillusioned with society in general. When you approach life with the assumption that people are evil by default you tend to only notice things which affirm that belief. I’ve since made a lot of changes in my life and gained a new perspective, and I’ve found that I more frequently notice people doing small acts of kindness when they think no one’s looking. Most people want to do good, it’s just that they don’t often succeed.
“He hates me, yet he caught me. Man is good.”
