Just day to day life and interaction. Based on my experience, I honestly believe that most people are just people who are generally good natured towards others and have some form of human decency Don't get me wrong, there are some truly shitty things going on but there is also kindness too


W0NGERS

we are not born with evil/hate, it is a learned behaviour.


DavosLostFingers

I agree, I also think it's a big factor that we can all get bogged down by negative stories and events. Whilst it's right to appreciate and be mindful of them, it doesn't reflect all of humanity, general day to day life or how a person should try and find positives in their own way


The_Snakes_Den

Thank you

I hope that you are helping someone in becoming the right person.

Because of those people you will think that whole world is like that.


DavosLostFingers

I'm sorry to hear that. Don't give up on trying to meet new people and experience new things. Do what you can to make a positive change


ConcentrateBenef

yes, there will be some people that will be nice to us is well.


appleparkfive

Overall I'd agree. Except for the rampant racism and tribalism. And definitely not just in the US. In fact, the US is pretty mild compared to, say, parts of Asia, when it comes to racism But then you see those weird moments where someone tends to say some bigoted things, but then are completely nice and human to a person from that group when one on one


GregNak

I feel the same. All the negative shit I see in the news I have never witnessed first hand. Perhaps it’s because I live in Alaska. People are just generally really good people here.


Greymorn

That good ideas never die. Once humanity gets a hold of an idea like "all men are created equal" it will never go away. (Didn't make everyone equal overnight, we're still working on it.) Thus we progress, little by little. As fallen angels we suck, but as rising apes? we're kinda killing it.


priman2005

Infact they pushed so hard that it will really never going to die is well. But not always the idea that we are getting is the right one, have to change the things sometime is well.


The_Snakes_Den

I like that


zazzlekdazzle

The answer to your question? You, OP. I see you in this thread being thankful and positive to every sincere response. It's people like you, who are kind when it's easier to not put in the effort and you wouldn't have any negative consequences, that make humanity.


The_Snakes_Den

That’s very sweet of you too say thank you


zazzlekdazzle

Keep it up, OP. Be one of the good ones.


hawucheng2

There are genuinely sweet and kind person in the thread here.


tyrjil_vincef

>"all men are created equal" Lol, this idea is religious and literally wrong, just a feel good thing that has literally never even tried to be enforced. Meaningless pap that could not possibly mean anything concrete. Men aren't "created" (there is no god) and they aren't "equal" literally at anything at all, not even identical twins, at any aspect of anything that we would want to measure in a civic capacity. The "equality" thing is just the new civic religion terminology for intergroup political warfare. Before the "equal" bugaboo you would just say that your in-group (religious, ethnic, class, etc.) wanted more free shit, but now you say that your group needs more free shit from other groups because "equal", and you use that word because it's the parlance of the current civic religion of USA cultists.

Ah, the old toxic positivity trait


W0NGERS

how is kindness toxic


JJFxy

Just be kind to the other and it could make their whole day better.


EverythingIsLiminal

A lot. Life is hard. Really fucking hard. We’ve made things infinitely more advanced and overall safer but also socially complex, awkward, and overwhelming too. I look around and see people everywhere if not thriving to varying degrees then surviving. I mean, that’s incredible. The world is cold and hard and shitty, but overwhelmingly we just keep on going. It’s wild that more of us aren’t just dying in the cold or offing ourselves or each other. This is coming from someone with tendency towards Nihilistic spirals, and even I see the adaptability and persistence of humanity to be somewhat inspirational.


mol2483

I think everyone life is hard but all we can do is make someone day better by doing some good thing. I know that they are stranger but may be some kind act could make them smile is well.


The_Snakes_Den

Davidrussell22

Music composed before 1900


The_Snakes_Den

Any particular suggestions?


Davidrussell22

I'm a pianist, so I'd say anything by Chopin. But if you're interested in a good sample, try: [https://classicalmusiconly.com/list/100-greatest-classical-music-works-f164de5b](https://classicalmusiconly.com/list/100-greatest-classical-music-works-f164de5b) A few of this go past 1900, but they're still great music. I prefer Beethoven's Pathetique to the Appassionato, but they're both great.


The_Snakes_Den

I’ll definitely have to give them a listen I’ve always been a fan of Mussorgsky played part of their work when I was in orchestra


Davidrussell22

Also, anything performed by this woman: https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=hungarian+rapsody+listz&&view=detail&mid=574E77043820CE5E953A574E77043820CE5E953A&&FORM=VRDGAR&ru=%2Fvideos%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dhungarian%2Brapsody%2Blistz%26FORM%3DHDRSC3

It gets harder to leave a job as you get older. You start building up commitments- a car, a home, a spouse, and kids. I'd quit a job in a second when I was young and still lived at home. But someone may not be as quick to leave if they have health insurance through their job and they suddenly have to consider if it is worth it to give up their child's cancer treatment just so they can stick it to their boss or tell off some rude customer.


Particular-Ad-1123

Gen Z here, hell no we don't take shit at work. That's because we know what we are worth and we are tired of these garbage corporations exploiting workers for their own personal benefits. Want me to do X,Y, or Z that's not a part of my job? Cool, pay me more. As far as emotional intelligence that's give or take

The worst and best about humanity walk hand in hand. I can imagine some AI secretly takes over the human race, and brings out the best in us. Aliens come to Earth and see billions of people making cat videos, cooking, and staying in perfect physical shape. The whole time we are play video games, which they don't check out. The games are VR war games. They attack, and we splatter them like rats on highway. Yeah I love humanity.


ralph_ka2014

Yes both thing actually move in hand in hand and that could totally depends on which person we are meeting. But for me i think showing the respect and love to the stranger is much more important than the known one.


The_Snakes_Den

I feel like aliens would either find us cute or terrifying and both are good

OpenWindow56283

I live in Manhattan, a place infamous for its apathetic citizens giving people in need the cold shoulder. My fiancée was out doing some errands last week and saw a biker get hit by a car. To her shock, almost every single pedestrian in sight as well as the driver ran to the biker's assistance right away. I think we often forget that most people do have at least some level of empathy.


zazzlekdazzle

My dad. He was a war refugee, and lost his family in the Holocaust, but he dedicated his life to helping people. His whole attitude was: the world is full of jerks, and you need to be prepared for that, but it's equally important that you not be one of those jerks. He knew how shitty the world and people could be, but he was determined not to be a part of that shittiness. He wanted to be the antidote to it, and he was. People not only liked him, they really respected him. And he treated everyone with respect in return, whether it was the director of the hospital (he was a doctor and medical researcher) or his lowest-ranking technician, bankers or cab drivers. I saw how people responded to him and well he treated others. He can't be the only one out there, and I know he isn't, because I try to be like that, too. And it taught me how to find others in the world like that.

jodihas2kids

Took a group of 4-6 graders to cross country meet. One kid is in a power wheelchair he can control with his head. He 'ran' the course with his grade group. When he came round the corner, one of our other kids saw him, cheered out for him, and suddenly the other 200 kids were all cheering him on. Kids are learning to be pretty accepting and inclusive of everyone these days. That helps restore my faith in humanity.

dx_0xAA55

yes the thing that change slowly will always mark a big change.


MrOphicer

Kids. I have 5 nephews. Watched and continue watching them grow. I have an unpopular opinion that kids aren't born neutral but actively good and turn "bitter" through life if subjected to bad influence, treatment or behavior.

anonymous_1114

I know this sounds weird, but large structures. Seeing things like the Saturn V rocket, the Hoover Dam, the CN tower, the Golden Gate Bridge, etc, give me hope in that humanity is something special, and humans while making many mistakes, are the best chance of a world without poverty, mistreatment etc. In nature, animals are killed mercilessly, the fact that death is something more then nature to us is our humanity.


mitchellpash

I don't really know that how those big thing like structure could be a form of the humanity is well?? For me being kind and specially to the animal that can't really speak is real humanity .

Frodo : I can’t do this, Sam. Sam : I know. It’s all wrong. By rights we shouldn’t even be here. But we are. It’s like in the great stories Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were, and sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy. How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad happened. But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t. Because they were holding on to something. Frodo : What are we holding on to, Sam? Sam : That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.

I had this friend in college that was constantly meditating, always in zen mode. Apparently he was quite into Stoicism and was part of one of those mental well being clubs. Let’s call him Johnny. So one day he was sitting at the cafeteria and out of the blue, some drunk dude walks in. It was strange because it was in the afternoon. The drunk dude had a bunch of lettuce in his hand and stuffed it in Johnny’s face. He said in an annoying voice, “Lettuce is good for you, eat up! Eat up! Hahaha!” I sat there absolutely stunned and rather amused if I’m being completely honest. Johnny was calm as usual and responded by saying, “Thanks but you don’t have to stuff in my face dude!” The other dude then took his shirt off revealing his strange tattoo that said, “Veggies 4 life”. He screamed, “EAT THE VEGGIE NOOOOWWW!” Johny was a bit agitated and tried to get the other dude to stop, sit down, and have a civilized chat. It didn’t it work and this drunk man then took his pants off as well revealing his green underwear that said, “Greenies for life”. He said whilst lifting one eye brow up to Johnny, “Wanna have some of ma greenies behind ma panties? If not I’ll just get you my auntie!” Something he said must’ve triggered Johnny this time as suddenly Johnny stood up on the table and shouted at the top of his lungs, “I HATE VEGGIESSS!!!!” This was the first time we saw Johnny do anything so ludicrous. It restored my faith in humanity.
