Does anyone else hate the vast majority of humans?

[Apostle]

I'm not a big enough thinker, or knowledgeable enough about the world, and I don't hold strong enough feelings or beliefs, to have a real opinion on humanity overall. So I won't try to say people are generally good or bad. I'd just be saying words and not giving a genuine response.

I can only try to give a real answer to this question if I take it from a personal experience angle. And honestly, I will say I dislike people generally. Not even necessarily because of all the assholes I've met, though I have met my share. Even the friendly people who are kind to me, and get along with each other around me...just aren't very likable to my cripplingly narrow taste in company. It's easy to "love" or "appreciate" someone I consider good, but actually liking and connecting with someone in a way that holds real depth and meaning? Nigh impossible. As I'm sure many of you would understand, it takes an insanely specific understanding between me and someone else, in order for me to truly care about them and really want to be around them. After many years, I found that rare connection with a couple people, but I drove them away by being a shitty person. So I've realized that kind of shit just isn't meant to last. That's why I, on a personal level, don't like people, especially not myself.

The thing i most hate about humonkeys is that they behave like monkeys/borgs rather than humans. But then again, most humans never spent half the time i spent studying them... In the end most people are deprived of knowledge of their own selves, and simply turn into tv-driven animals.

And most wouldn't even dare leave the crop.

No, I don't particularly hate humans, but most of them, those who propagate evil, those who harm others in any way, those who abuse the weak or exploit them and...and.... But I think the one I hate the most is me ..

I like the idea of human contact, but not the reality of socializing. I often feel lonely when I'm alone, but even lonelier when I'm around people. In many ways, I see myself as a cynical idealist. I want to believe in people and their capacity to do good, but I've often been disappointed and disillusioned by human nature.

 

[marcusuk63]

not all , only 99.9%
I could quite happily live alone on an island ( as long as grocery stores deliver )

 

[woxihuanni]

Not hate, just that I know I cannot truly engage with the vast majority. Culture, world view, tastes, etc.

 

[a_strange_day]

I dont hate them, it's just that I cant stand them. they can do whatever they want as long as I dont have to endure them and their endless noise
I dont know why but it has always been very difficult for me to live amongst my fellow humans brothers, even when I was a child.

 

[Wayfaerer]

Yes and I can't help it.

 

[OverItAll]

OP, i can definitely relate. I think that everyone, even close family and friends, are inherently selfish. There also seems to be a deep seated sense of envy in everyone - people are jealous of others (for many reasons, material acquisitions, wealth, having a great life etc).

My Dad recognised it too, always told me "Trust no-one; show them nothing, tell them nothing". It's a sad indictment of modern life that we can't trust our fellow human beans. I actually find it quite depressing, that you can't fully trust even your closest friends for fear that they have ulterior motives (or even secretly sabotage good stuff that happens to you).

It's one of the things that pushes me towards CTB. It's not that i don't feel empathy towards others, more that they don't seem to feel it towards me. Just a world of narcissists, sociopaths and straight up assholes. Yeah, not feeling a lot of warmth for my fellow man (and woman) at the moment, lol.

 

[nothingleft]

No, I don't really hate anyone. Too much effort. I just spend my time around people I relate to and ignore the rest.

 

[wanttodie]

I completely agree as well

 

[Numbtopain97]

Yes,i can relate.

You caught my good side!

Quite frankly, it's shocking to me how cruel and shitty people are capable of being; the need to validate their hatred behavior makes them little better than a pack of wild dogs. out for blood. As a 64 year old widower (she died on December 8) my wife and I enjoyed 25.5 years together, and we would often reinforce each other's misanthropy. Sara,I miss you!

So sorry for your loss.

Thanx jean; your quote from Morrison is so apt...it's strange, as I find myself realizing I am truly alone, without her, forever. We both had it tough growing up, but beyond that we managed to build a life for ourselves alone. Thanxagain for your sympathy.

 

[Reyki6667]

Yeah. Most of them are cowards, delusional, inconsistent, superficial, brainwashed, irrational , self deluded toxic piece of shits who contributed in this world decline by not doing shit.

 

[Pan]

It's the cowardice that really bothers me. The human race seems safer when it acts out in herd-like manner. That they themselves don't know it shocks me more.
