And so do you. I never said I was excluded from that rule. I am at least unabashedly honest about it. You just don't want to accept you are the same way.

We are nothing but selfish, indolent, avaricious, narcissistic, jealous, petty, nasty little apes who establish dominance hierarchies and silently judging others for the reasons I listed above is one of the myriad of ways in which we demonstrate our true nature and establish dominance over one another.

Convincing oneself one is superior to others is a survival mechanism. A destructive one I am going to judge you and blame you for, simply because it is the truth.

We are destructive and cruel to each other and that is what it means to be human. Accept it.

Do yourself a favor and tell that to a therapist.

See? The first thing any of you thought to do was take offense because deep down inside, you know what I'm saying is true.

Would it help if I told you it's okay to just be a simple animal? We all are anyway.

I didn't take offense. It's not that all of what you're saying is false. It's just quite obvious that you have a very negative picture of humans and probably have been hurt. People aren't just the cruel animals you think they are. I know that and sincerely wish that you someday will as well. So that wasn't meant offensive in any way. Go see a therapist.

What makes you think they took offense? If they responded another way that they don't do it, you'd believe them? I think you're just coming up with excuses to claim that you're right.

Wow, I scrolled through your history and landed one one random comment.

If you see humans default to this, it's only a reflection of yourself, and I mirror the guy who replied to you. Therepy would really help you.

Choose to see the good, or proliferate the bad, your choice.
