Comment on Having the ability to lie and manipulate with no remorse will get you much further in this world than having morals and being correct

  Most people are selfish and amoral. When people like that encounter a decent person they will do what they can to silence them so they aren’t given the ability to expose corruption.

  You probably don’t like most people because most people are walking sacks of shit who would throw you under the bus if it means benefiting themselves

    You’d be wrong. I’m sorry that you feel this way about humanity, but that is simply not true. And believing that won’t make you a “smart” person. It makes you’re no better than those people, and it also makes you feel worse.

    It might be satisfying in the moment to hate humanity, but that satisfaction is fleeting and addicting. Being a misanthrope just brings the worst version of yourself out.

      Seems condescending to assume I think that belief makes me “smart”. I’m speaking on my experience, that’s the only experience I have. I don’t appreciate you trying to make me out as some kind of angsty teen rebel.

        Well, your experience isn’t universal. Most people aren’t like you described.

        Maybe you need a change of environment.

      I want the worst version of myself out. I recently made two shitty co-workers crap themselves.

        Being bad towards shitty people is a different beast from being bad towards everyone because you assume the worst out of everyone.

        Righteous outrage is addicting, but it’s also extremely fucking draining. I left reddit because I’d constantly rage bait myself every day and it was destroying my relationships.

      I want nothing from you other than your social security, bank cards and pins, credit card information, medical information, your first born, your shoe size, favorite color and why, as well as your third born
