Why is there so much negativity in the world? I get not wanting to be "hopelessly optimistic" and all that, and I know that there are things in life worth worrying about, but it seems that no matter where I go there are so many people that just complain about and hate seemingly everything. And I know, i'm technically complaing about other people complaining, which is bad, but i'm genuinely curious as to why there is so much negativity.
Whenever something isn't perfect, some people will complain. Whenever someone is better off than another, some people will act jealous. Whenever there is something they don't like, some people will hate. I don't get it. Not settling for mediocrity or being upset or a little jealous is one thing, but it seems as if so many people take it to a whole nother level.
Is it just Negativity bias or what? What's the deal?

I think the complainers are just looking for something to say, they get a bit carried away moaning about everything they notice. I don't mind these because they are really easy to influence.
It's the people who grew up in bad places who are full of hate that I don't understand. Like the Turkish/Russian/American that screams at his own team on Counterstrike.

Well I mean I can get being pissed off sometimes, that's normal, but yeah you're probably right about complainers.
I just think that it can't really be healthy nor pleasant to be so angry and stressed about so much all of the time, y'know?

People are determined to have SOME kind of personality. When you're a vapid dipshit, you'll discover that it's super easy to bitch about everything. You don't even need a real reason, just "I don't like this."
You only start noticing negative people everywhere when you surround yourself with them. Get yourself some non-shitty friends.

Maybe you'e right, I will admit that some of the people I hang around with are pretty negative a lot of the time, not really bad people, but yes - very negative.
I'm mainly just not sure why someone would be like this. I know you said it's a personality thing, and I know that everyone is different yes, but it just seems to defy all logic as to why someone wouldn't atleast try and change this part about themselves - unless of couse they don't see it as an issue, which I have encountered before. I mean people aren't always logical, but still.
Is this something that can even be changed in a person? Or is it just such a crucial part of some people to act like this to the point where it cannot be changed?

Surround yourself with different people.
Get a friendcircle who have a possitive "can do" attitude about life. Friends with hobbies who are well balanced and going places, friends who can push you towards your goals as well you helping them achieve theirs.
Odds are, youre just surrounding yourself with shitty people.
