Most people are good, it's a wealthy few who exploit the planet and people for profit who are destroying the planet. The "humans are inherently selfish/evil" line only serves to protect those responsible from accountability by distributing the blame.
"He hates me, yet he caught me. Man is good."
I used to think this way when I was miserable and disillusioned with society in general. When you approach life with the assumption that people are evil by default you tend to only notice things which affirm that belief. I've since made a lot of changes in my life and gained a new perspective, and I've found that I more frequently notice people doing small acts of kindness when they think no one's looking. Most people want to do good, it's just that they don't often succeed.
I used to think people were good at their core, and then the covid pandemic happened and everybody revealed themselves to be self serving dickheads.
Glad you have a PMA (positive mental attitude) about stuff. Im not as grumpy as i seem either, I don't think, but i have little faith in the goodness of humanity.
