Very much incorrect on one point. Humans are terrible because other humans are terrible to them at an early point in their life. It isn't a flaw of being sentient.
Yes, childhood trauma can be the cause of a lot of mental health issues in adult life, but attributing it to all human shitty behaviour is a wide sweeping brushstroke.
More so than the prior comment? Hurt people hurting people has a whole lot of research supporting it?
More what than which comment? I don't really understand your comment. I didn't dismiss the concept of childhood trauma.
Ask those terrible pressure in the world didn't just appear by coincidence. Being terrible isn't all of human nature, but it's clearly an inextricable part of it.
