Is it normal i don't like people?

People are disgusting, aggressive, selfish animlas. In the last week I have seen more of this behavior over the Christmas period then any other time of the year. So much for peace and good will to your fellow man, more like it's Christmas? go fuck yourself and die. Ideally, I'd live out on the land somewhere, away from all these primitive animals.

Is it normal I don't like people?

  • "Go fuck yourself and die"

    If you look for scorn you'll find it. Those who look for kindness in the world find that too.

    People are whatever we tell them they can be, rather than what we tell them they can't be.

    • Good answer. Please note this the general public telling me to fuck off and die not the other way around. I am generally nice and kind to everyone I meet, but just when I'm attacked by an aggressive person, I seem to match that aggression ten fold.

        Congratulations you have figured out the secret of man kind. Now you must either cope with it and hide or you can figure out how to get on with your life and ignore this fact. Learn to operate and this can be used to your advantage. Get these selfish assholes to attack each other and smile and walk off past the pile of destruction you have created.

      This, I could not agree more.

    Most people are pretty despicable and will always disappoint you.

    However some people are wonderful and make life worthwhile, I try to hold onto such people when I find them.

    Make yourself too busy doing good to have time to care whether people are rude, selfish, whatever. Life is too short to brood over crap and think about shit you hate. That's pointless. Be productive, be the change you want to see in the world. Too many fucking assholes out there? Go volunteer at a soup kitchen or donate money to an organization for sick babies, and forget about the negative people.

    • That is a good answer. Removing myself from the negative people seems to be my only option.

    Away from the primitive animals you say?

    IT IS sad to say that the animals, the REAL animals you'd rather live with are less ''primitive'' than humans sometimes.

    I agree with you wholeheartedly.

    I don't think everyone is like you say, but I have to admit, my faith in human nature is a fragile thing and I find myself disappointed in people more often than I'd like.

    • I agree, not everyone no. I do find myself, more often than not, in the same boat as yourself. I think greed is the most disgusting flaw I find in mankind. Some people would happily destroy the environment just to make a dollar and it devastates me.

        Selfishness is my big thing too. I used to see it as something that children are, and then grow out of. Now I just see people pretending they've outgrown their selfishness (and some who don't even bother pretending).

        • This is true, but I don't mean selfishness as wants and needs. I mean selfishness as people deliberately manipulating others and using their misfortune for personal gain. That type of selfishness.

      When I'm disappointed in people, I tend to think that at least half of the time it's my fault for assuming people are more capable than they are. I often overestimate the good that people can do and find myself feeling disappointed when they turn down an opportunity to do good. I sometimes think I should lower my expectations of people to stop feeling disappointed but if I do that I feel like I'd lose hope that people even can do good things at all, and I'd rather keep the hope even if I feel let down sometimes. Do you ever feel like that?

      I feel like this should be it's own IIN question now! :P

        Yeah, I do agree. My problem is that I expect everyone to climb above the low tide mark and when some people inevitably don't, I comment on that more often than the people who go way beyond it. There are people here on IIN who go beyond my expectations repeatedly (doesn't need a list, you and the others hopefully know who you are) and while I notice it, I often don't say anything. Although, admittedly, that's partly because complimenting someone here often inspires a negative effect in other people desperately jealous and of the opinion all attention in the world should flow directly towards them.

      • This is exactly how I feel just expressed perfectly and without anger. Best answer.

    I hate the majority of society. And the christmas season just brings out the worst in people. People are insane.

    I think you will find there are primitive animals out in the middle of nowhere. Maybe you are a dick so people are not nice to you because they don't like you.

    • No, I am nice if people are nice. I have plenty of friends, it's just lately everyone I have come across in the street is negative, rude and selfish.

        You have plenty of friends.... Who you don't like and you want to move away from?

        Ever think the problem isn't with everybody else?

        • I never said I don't like my friends, I just don't like the general public and their hostilities. If other people have the same problem, what do they do?

            You didn't need to say you don't like your friends.

            You said you don't like people. You said people are disgusting, aggressive, selfish animals.

            You didn't say SOME people. Just people, which implies all people. Maybe you needed to consider this post a little better so it came across less as a "fuck you all" and more as a "fuck some of you"?

    "Ideally, I'd live out on the land somewhere, away from all these primitive animals."

    So what's stopping you? I doubt any "people" want to be around an asshole like you!

      You know, I don't know if you're thinking you are being helpful, or if you are just trying to be an unhelpful jackass.

    So bored of these misanthropic posts now.

    You're one of us. If you think people are disgusting, aggressive, selfish animals, then that is what you are too. If you want to hate us along with yourself, so be it. But don't think you're superior.

    "...away from all these primitive animals" you can't escape yourself, fellow 'primitive animal'.

    • At no point did I say I was superior. You're reading into this far too much. I want to escape the hostility of society. We have murders and rapes and muggings and beatings here everyday. Every person you meet on the street is aggressive and rude. Is it so wrong to want to be away from all that?

        No, it's not wrong to want to move away from violent people and upsetting situations.

        But you just declared your dislike for everyone. Not just those particular troublesome individuals. You called everyone disgusting, aggressive, selfish animals - that includes us, your family, your friends and yourself.

        Thinking you can run away from the flaws of human nature suggests you think you are above those flaws, hence it comes across as though you think you are superior, even if you haven't overtly stated it.

  • Also, it seems a lot of members are getting confused with the fuck off and die expression I used in the post. What I meant by that is that is the attitude I get from the general public. I am generally kind and nice to everyone I meet and being Christmas I thought people were supposed to look out for each other but the attitude I get from the people I meet on the street is aggressive, hostile and negative and I'm just over all that hostility.

    I get angry at people a lot of times too. But I know that theres no way away from them, so I just learn to deal with them. They probably get pissed off at you too. I already know they get angry at me sometimes. Thats when I/you could try to become better people.
