Most of my apartment neighbors are actually really cool, chill people. There's a handful of people who stink, but like... Oh well?? That's living around other humans? You adapt to the shitty ones and get along with the good ones.

If you run around assuming all your apartment neighbors will forever be annoying, you'll never get to know any that aren't. Same with neighbors in the suburbs. Being around humans can suck sometimes, but if you look you can often find decent people.

I’ve met more decent wild animals than I have people.

You say that like it's an insult.

Someone who hates or distrusts humankind certainly isn't a positive trait.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

positive

Depends on your perspective.

If humanity wants me to like them they need to be at least as well-behaved as wild animals.

Awww surely not!

Ever heard that quote, paraphrasing the start of it:

You run into a jerk in the morning, you ran into a jerk.

(Maybe you know the rest) If you give that some thought for the rest of the week (assuming you’re out and about), interested to hear any thoughts on it :)

Part of the reason I hate people is I put a ton of effort into trying not to be a jerk, stressing myself out with constant worry from monitoring my behavior at all times, but other people don't seem to give anyone else the same courtesy.

And that doesn't even get into how hard it is for me to relate to almost everyone. I watch weird TV shows, listen to weird music, read weird books, and have weird hobbies. Outside of the weather I don't really have anything to talk to them about, despite their seemingly constant need for interaction.
