Most people I have come by are generally rude and evil, there's a few exceptions but I have given up on interacting with people at all, I see it as a liability. I only have one friend who thinks like me and I don't want anyone else in my life, I doubt I will ever get into a relationship. Are you similar to this? Have you aswell given up on people?

I still talk to people in person and have friends but I put on a façade so they don't see how depressed and broken I am

Online I can be more open with my emotions because if people are being judgemental I can just block or ignore them

After my last relationship where I got physically assaulted I've mostly given up on trusting people in person. The only person i trust is my best friend because she's never judged me. I've been hurt too many times over and over again and I'm exhausted. I don't have the energy to form any new friendships or even get into a relationship; putting a façade on for everyone is already tiring enough

I mean, you can't go certain places at night or you're almost guaranteed to be raped, robbed, or murdered. What does that tell you about human beings?

I agree, Ive never had a lot of friends and ive never been in a relationship. Love disgusts me whether its platonic or romantic. i guess thats due to my bad experiences with people in the past and present time, welp.

Yep. Only got my mom and my aunt. That's it. They are the only genuinely kind, empathetic, truly intelligent people I know. I've tried so many times to find someone. In person, on apps... even when they did seem great and we were friends for like a year, they either dumped me out of nowehere, or turned out to be awful anyway. I don't bother anymore. Simply leaving the house won't prevent you from bumping into random assholes. It doesn't take much to make me angry and traumatized all over again.

From my perspective, many people are evil and have inflated egos, and their behavior is reinforced and rewarded by the system.
Most of this goes under the radar, because we've normalized these traits as part of socialization, even though they serve the system rather than genuine morality. In many contexts, toxic behavior isn't even labeled as "evil," because some structures benefit from it and it serves the system.

Just knowing that hardly anyone out there would understand these thoughts or even pause to think about them, shows that I'm not really compatible with most people. They'd rather follow their script. I'm so done with people.

Most people are shades of grey to me. Everyone everywhere is focused on their own lives and their own survival in this world. And this world can make people become very selfish and very numb to cruelty (which perpetuates it).

Most people don't want to be evil and cruel and are not born that way. The universe is a hostile place and the world within it is dominated and run by humans who choose evil which forces evil upon everyone else to varying degrees.

The name of the game is Survival Instinct. It rules us all more than we care to admit. We are not and never will be separate or better than all other animals. We are just like them still.

Yes, I have mostly given up on people. They don't like me, and I don't like them. That will never change.

With so many cruel humans going around, with people in power doing what they do, I think we are lucky to find some normal people, kind and caring people, like here on SaSu.

I think people by and large are simply trying to survive, society rewards those who are cruel and take advantage of others. In many social scenarios people hurt and bully those who are seen as on the bottom of the totem pole, to avoid being placed there themselves. The average person on the street won't be looking to make you miserable but in the right conditions they might. This is where I agree with part of what you said, in every human there is a capacity for cruelty as a social survival mechanism. But I want to believe that only the few truly evil derive enjoyment from the suffering they inflict on others.

I grew up watching rude assholes be successful and popular. People thought they were the hottest shit ever. I never understood how the kind, but timid person was punished so severely for their timidness, but the people who treat others with complete contempt are somehow the top dogs. I guess it's because evil people don't care about who they step over, and can boost their egos by doing so, giving them the confidence (arrogance) to become successful. Meanwhile, kind people seem to always been targeted for their kindness until they themselves have no choice but to hate the world. It never made much sense to me. Are the virtues of honestly, kindness, and humility a lie? I thought virtuous people were supposed to be the ones everyone looked up to, yet it seems it's the opposite. There's exceptions of course, but those exceptions are, at least to me, nothing more than survivorship bias.

I put a façade on, too, so people don't see how depressed I am. I'll smile or socialize to make people think I'm okay.

Putting on a façade is tiring for me.

Existing in exhausting.

I understand, to me humans truly are the worst most terrible species that just causes so much cruelty, harm and suffering, this species truly is a mistake to me and what is so evil is how so many humans want to do all they can to force others to suffer in this torturous, dreadful existence for as long as possible, they want others to be tortured and feel the pain of existing, to me anti-suicide is just horrific extreme cruelty.

It's just so terrible how humans cause all this dreadful suffering that there was never a need for by imposing this existence in the first place, to suffer in this existence truly is the most terrible, undeserved punishment.

I don't leave the house much but when I do I notice that people have changed. Bad mannered , obnoxious, selfish, cruel.
Those with power and influence seem to be mostly awful people and shameless too. I think people are becoming pretty much naked in their self interest. greed and power lust.
I hope global warming wipes us out I really do

Most people in this world is rotten, there's nothing we can do about it unfortunately. Most people may not have actually done the extreme bad things but they would if they had the power/ could get away with it. I'm sorry you've had such bad experiences with people, I hope you find happiness 🫶🏻
