From your life experience, do you think most people are good or bad?

[jack1924]

Give me an example

[Babygirl_S]

They're actually a lot better when not anonymous. I definitely like fellow humans, especially when I imagine being alone in the world. In real life interactions, they're kind and helpful but some anonymous users on the internet are mean to me for being an Indian.

[northerngal]

Good. Just going about their daily lives. Problem is the bad people get all the attention.

[jack1924]

That’s right

[NathanDavis]

fortunately...

most people in my life are good, great... and even amazeballs

sure, there's bad stuff too... but these are not the majority, that's for sure

[jack1924]

I'm starting to lose hope in humanity after what's happening in some parts of the world.

[NathanDavis]

yeah, but... no matter how bad, it's was way worse before

we're actually improving

[jack1924]

Hmm, but I think there is no point in this improvement if it is not towards all people, but I respect your opinion.

[NathanDavis]

well... it can also be kind of pointless to bother ourselves with the misfortune of other places and other people that we really don't have any influence somewhere in the world

I do what I can, here, in my region... with my people, while I can too

[jack1924]

👍🏻👍🏻

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

You can't trust all people is the way I see things, I place trust in people and end up getting hurt.

[jack1924]

This is one of the worst experiences anyone can have👍🏻

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Thanks for MHO :)

I think the majority are bad (around 60%), and would mess over others for their own gains, but many only don't because of possible consequences.

For example, once some states wouldn't lock up thieves or some violent criminals and word got around, those kinds of crimes greatly increased.

Once racism against Whites was not punished and actually rewarded, many more people mistreated White people more often.

The bad morals were already present in those people, but once there was a lack of consequences, more people acted on their bad thoughts.

[KostasKouvalis]

Yes, I agree. I think things we consider "crimes" would be far more common if we knew we wouldn't get punished for them.

[KostasKouvalis]

I also couldn't agree more with the first part of your statement. Though the numbers can be debated, but the majority of people are self centered and have no honor

[Lynx122]

i think most people are good but can have flaws that make them act in a bad way and the environment also will play a role. In a place where more people are desperate more people will behave in questionable ways.

[jack1924]

Very true

[TheSpaceGnome]

Most people mean well but are stupid and do bad things because they are stupid.
What each person is stupid about tends to vary based on their comprehension ability and their life experiences, so most people are both good and bad, it depends on the situation or subject matter.

The most intelligent people are merely stupid about far less things than most other people, because they choose knowledge over assumptions and have the ability to understand more of it.

[KostasKouvalis]

Bad unfortunately. I don't think "bad" in the sense that they would commit a violent crime against someone, but from my personal experiences, the majority of people are dishonest and greedy. They have no qualms about deceiving or exploiting others to benefit themselves. They've lost their morals and their honor

[wiltingrosepetal]

People are people. We all have reasons for our actions, and in our minds they are fair and valid. There are people I consider bad, though that's only based on perspective. I'm sure they're beloved by the majority

[Iron_Man]

There’s a lot of selfish people out there that are fake friends. They’re not Genuine unfortunately but there’s some real good ones as well.

[jack1924]

Fake friends are the worst

[Iron_Man]

Yes, I met a lot of different people and when tough time hit you the fake Fairweather friends disappear

[jack1924]

Couldn’t agree more

[Iron_Man]

Thanks

[jack1924]

You are welcome

[LaurenM1997]

A bit of both with guys it’s hard to trust because of the past and with girls I can trust easily cause they are easier to be friends with

[Chazmatazz269]

Nobody is entirely either. Everyone is good AND bad.

[Smashingdoozy]

Most people are good. But bad people ruin it for the rest of us

[Pupweb]

I don’t think they are bad people they just didn’t some shitty things

[HaveNoName]

Humans are born perfect and then society makes them bad, society turns them away from God given beliefs. Some go completely astray and some go less.

[Sevenpointfive]

it's not a black and white experience. you take the grey. but in my experience that grey turns darker. their are some people that only give you white. hold onto them

[Anonymous]

From life experience. I'm going to say most people are bad. Is it wrong of me to feel negativity towards others? You've never shown me kindness. You've made me feel that it's better to be alone. and that I should never trust anyone.

[DrPepper12]

Good. Morality is a feature not a bug of communal living among social animals.

[Nikki1989]

Most people are bad and it is 100% their doing.

[RedInnocent69]

Not necessarily good, but mean well. The trick is to understand what motivates them. Unfortunately, that’s often very selfish.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Humans naturally suck. For the most part most humans are OK.

[dustybiker2]

Most people are in the grey area which can be the most damaging.

[ab2shifty]

Where I grew up, prolly bad

[jack1924]

Where did you grow up?

[NetherlandsNar]

Bad unfortunately
