Why are Humans Cruel beings?

>>17527417
Narcissism. That is all.

what advice were you looking for exactly?

This question is too big for an anime image forum to answer.

people are cruel because others are cruel, never ending cycle. What people must realize is, we're not born with hatred, are surroundings mold us.

most people are actually good, at least when they get older, they just want to look after their family. People are often cruel to others because they are insecure, and dont know how else to deal with their problems.

There's no evolutionary neccesity to be nice to animals. There is for humans since we cohabitat together, but that's about it.

We never felt the need to develop such.

Read Huxley, Darwin, Maynard Smith or Ridley if you think I'm full of shit.

It's kinda instinctive, I dunno why. It goes away once you get older and socialized. I was cruel as fuck as a kid and now I can't understand why I was doing what I was doing. Kids are little devils after all, some just don't grow up and remain like that. I don't know why it's so natural. From evolutionary standpoint it does not seem so clear why pointless and reward-less cruelty brings as joy for the sole sake of cruelty.

I think that instinctively we are cruel.
Being nice to each other and to animals is basically a social construct.
Sometimes the social construct fails.

im guessing kids are cruel because they cant fully comprehend the consequences of their actions. as we get older and go through more shit we start to gain more empathy fortunately i was never too much of a little shit but at times i could be a cunt.

You do realize that people who are exceedingly cruel to animals tend to be sociopaths or psychopaths later on right?

No worries, I'm a high-functioning one.

I'm compassionate toward animals. I hate killing certain insects. I think it has to do with the persons intellect and how well they are able to emphasize with others outside their own experience. Self-centered behavior and lack of being able to understand others feelings are traits that are extremely common these days.

This is not even true. Most people mind their own business. It's just that you probably only notice the bad apples

Even though life in itself is getting better quality wise (looking up information, ease of jobs, etc) life is also a lot shittier in many other aspects. Suicide rates are higher than they were a century ago. Depression rates are higher. People on average are having less children, cost of living continuously increases while wages get lower due to inflation and whatever.

Some people feel like they need a sense of power or control and sometimes that turns into being shitty towards others that wont retaliate such as people worse off (physically or mentally) or domesticated animals.
