Humanity. The general population of the Earth. This saddens me. Yes, there are good people. But they're so few and far between. Most of them end up overrun and hidden under the endless masses of selfish people. I'm no better, either. I go through my day, calculating my every move on some level, trying to find the best outcome for me. Or atleast the one that leaves the fewest people angry at me. I don't think "Oh so-and-so might be hurt and/or angry at me if I do this," it's almost always "I'm going to leave. Let's start damage control now, when I still have a good 5 years till then."
If everyone are good people, would good exist? Is a purely good world truly desirable?
I mean, obviously the state of living would be better, but there's something kind of
sinister about a society where people literally lack the capability to be evil. And I'm not debating philosophy but if these theoretical people are all capable of evil, but are refraining from doing so out of free will, would they actually be capable of evil?
And even then, how would you truly define what is evil? Selfishness? Most dictators are not truly selfish. They are idealists which oppress people in the belief that it is for their own good.
I don't mean to go on a philosophical tangent but, even though I myself feel that way sometimes, I don't think it's correct to judge humanity because we are grey (maybe a dark shade of grey if you're being pessimistic) rather than pure white.
Not to mention, some people don't think they are bad people. (i.e. terrorists) So again, even if everyone is "nice" in the world we'll probably have wars and famines and all around unpleasantness, except that the atrocity will be committed at a faster rate as the perpetrators believe themselves to be in the right.
tl;dr Matters are complex.
Though, I'm not saying you shouldn't think that way, it's just that these sort of sad thoughts are ones that need to be logicked to death.
