I feel like I hate people

[Omerta]

I think I really do, their unconsciousness makes me sick. I don't know why, it is that way. But not before. I hate murderers, rapers, rubbers, stealers, retarded people who act like ♥♥♥♥. There is no respect of life in this society. Life is so beautiful, but those who screw the humanity are a real plague. I would love to raise kids, have a familly , but there is too much crap around us, it saddens me. Just watch the news, it is miserable. Zombies freak, robots, nothing else. I am so disappointed by these mindless human behaviors. I hate people with no brain, who have zero common sense, no class, people who smoke their cigarettes in your face to destroy your health. People who drive drunk(I mean seriously how can you do this!?). Fortunately, I admit that there is nice/intelligent/kind people. But the majority sucks! The close-minded ones , the angry ones , the weird ones , the crazy ones, their selfish behaviors. ♥♥♥♥ them I want to live my life for the better, now I ignore them, they don't exist anymore. Does anyone feels like me. Am I alone to think this way???

[elucidate]

You are not alone.

I've decided to quit my job because it really attracts the dregs of society, and I don't need any more evidence to feed my feelings towards people. I need to be around people like the ones who frequent these boards and the few I have selected in my off line life, who are decent and still have humanity in tact.

That's more important than money...even if the money is very good.

You become what you surround yourself with, so it's important to make sure you are around high conscious people with integrity.

Welcome to the Lion's Den.....

"Zarathustra divides the evolution of consciousness into three symbols: the camel, the lion, and the child.

The camel is a beast of burden, ready to be enslaved, never rebellious. He cannot ever say no. He is a believer, a follower, a faithful slave. That is the lowest in human consciousness.

The lion is a revolution. The beginning of the revolution is a sacred no.

In the consciousness of the camel there is always a need for someone to lead and someone to say to him, “Thou shalt do this.” He needs the Ten Commandments. He needs all the religions, all the priests and all the holy scriptures because he cannot trust himself. He has no courage and no soul and no longing for freedom. He’s obedient.

The lion is a longing for freedom, a desire to destroy all imprisonments. The lion is not in need of any leader; he is enough unto himself. He will not allow anybody else to say to him, “Thou shalt,” – that is insulting to his pride. He can only say, “I will.” The lion is responsibility and a tremendous effort to get out of all chains.

But even the lion is not the highest peak of human growth. The highest peak is when the lion also goes through a metamorphosis and becomes a child. The child is innocence. It is not obedience, it is not disobedience; it is not belief, it is not disbelief – it is pure trust, it is a sacred yes to existence and to life and to all that it contains.

The child is the very peak of purity, sincerity, authenticity, receptivity, and openness to existence. These symbols are very beautiful."

Omerta, find your voice and help open up some sleepy eyes out there. Turn that judgment into compassion.

You're observations are spot on but your energy is not. Use it to help others grow.

Of course not! But I wouldn't say that you're in exclusively good company, either. A lot of the same people you hate, think of themselves as "realistic" "misunderstood" and better than everybody else -- everybody else being unconscious, gullible, fair game to cheat and take advantage of, and so on.

There are also people who treat the unconscious with the utmost compassion, which can either be judged as more awake than even you-- or heartbreakingly naïve.

And there are people who honestly do try to see things from another person's point of view (but can only see that the other person's point of view is stupid.)

Don't worry, you're bound to find your clique somewhere.

Light shines at it brightest when surrounded by darkness.

Without darkness we would be without the joyful experience of illuminating.

Well, I don't quite agree with your view. I think that most people are alright.

Your post seems to be filled with a lot of general dislike for the human race.

[Brutha]

Just watch the news, it is miserable.

If you watch news made by people who focus on telling you about negative events you shouldn't be surprised when you feel the world is miserable.

I think I really do, their unconsciousness makes me sick.

That's a funny statement.
You choose to make yourself sick because of their behavior.

It's something that you are probably unconscious about. Fortunately it's an issue that you can address with personal development.
You can start to take responsiblity for your emotions.

[Clint Cora]

I can understand why you hate criminals and other people who do awful things. However, some people, like some drug addicts, fell into hard times because of bad circumstances. So some of these folks are not proud to be where they are and would truly love to get out if they can.

I agree that it is much better to surround yourself with positive, good people. However, I don't think you have completely been successful in ignoring the bad people as you say. Otherwise, you wouldn't have written such a post.

[Angela]

I think you get more of what you focus on. So why not focus on what you want?

[Laurenaus]

angry at the parents who bore these children. These kids weren't born the way they are today. Through abuse, neglect, poor care or giving birth in awful circumstances their kids turned this way. Of course there are exceptions like having a genetic disposition for something, or being surrounded in a social circle of bad influence but I do blame families who weren't meant to have children.

You sound like a misanthrope. I'm a misanthrope. I choose the perception that most people suck as a means of protecting my feelings for future disappointment, focusing on myself, getting rid of the evil voices in my head, and motivating myself to be the best me I can be What's wrong with that? Why conform to the view that you need to love everyone, be bubbly/ extroverted, have a huge social network, etc? What's the point of that? What could that possibly accomplish? It doesn't make you richer or better looking. It just makes you a sheep.

I hate angry domineering people, people who support the double standard ("men and women are different") especially women who are uncomfortable with casual sex and therefore try to make you feel like there's something wrong with you if you aren't, jealous people, people who feed off your energy and are constantly engaged in a game of one-upmanship by putting you down and embarassing you to make themselves feel superior, bullies, people who see me as their child to be scolded, people who browbeat you into getting a job, any job, knowing how hard it is in this economy, people who engage in dribble conversations because they don't know how to entertain themselves, etc. I used to have a particular bone to pick with Lauren Murphy, a girl from high school who was Ms. Perfect and would always make me feel like a loser even though I was nearly perfect. When I asserted myself and said how I felt politely she would just laugh and loudly proclaim "sorry you feel that way!" and then continue handing my ass to me. I also don't like certain famous people, including Camille Paglia, an arrogant ♥♥♥♥♥ who supports the double standard unless you're getting paid, which makes no sense at all, and Larissa Aurora, and angry bully who had made millions off of other people's suffering. As far as I'm concerned, they don't exist.

I like intelligent people, people who respect my intelligence, people who support who I am and how I choose to live my life, openminded people, etc.

I embrace solitude where I can learn and achieve growth in various areas. I embrace my online comrades and my friends/lovers. So far so good.

You've been told you're not good enough or been rejected because you see things differently.

I see my own behavior as a revolt against a society that doesn't understand, protect or care about me. And I've chosen to change my perception because I also understand how damaging perception can be. Whether you want to believe it or not, psychology has done a good job of documenting our need as humans to be social. I don't want to limit myself and actually i encourage growth, even on topics like this where I know my opinion is justified.

[Acting Like Godot]

As I look at the people in my life, the people I personally know and meet and interact with, I note that that to my knowledge:

1. None are murderers
2. None are rapists
3. None are robbers
4. None are thieves
5. One is retarded (but that's hardly his fault, he was that born that way)
6. None are zombies
7. None are robots
8. None have no brains
9. Levels of common sense do differ among them (some have more than me, others have less)
10. One, I would say, has "no class", but then in her own uncouth ways, she has traits which seem to endear her to certain others
11. No one smokes in my face (my country does have strict laws about permissible smoking areas)
12. Some are close-minded, yes I would agree
13. A few are angry
14. Some are crazy and weird (these are mostly my artistic friends and I think that they make the world a more interesting place)
15. Yes, quite a few are selfish. Since i am not exactly Mother Teresa myself, I don't feel that I have the moral high ground to kick up a big fuss about it.

Now, if I were to run through the same list of people and look for the positive, I would find that many of them have something in themselves which I would respect, admire or generally like.

[Acting Like Godot]

So, folks, how many of your neighbours are rapists? Which of your family members are murderers? How many of your colleagues are robbers? How many of your classmates are retarded? How many of your friends are zombies or freaks?

[CroMagna]

I don't think the OP was referring to people she already knows, but rather, "the public." I agree that most people aren't evil but merely annoying.

[Acting Like Godot]

Who is the "public"?

I am a member of the public. You are a member of the public.

Think of the 10, 20 or 50 members of the public you have most recently encountered. How many of them were evil or annoying?

I think there is degrees to this. Yes, some people really should not have kids, but most decent parents aren't perfect to some degree. Usually 2 people can't meet all your needs. That's why if you want to learn something that your parents can't teach you, find someone who can.


---On a different note, I'm personally good at avoiding people who aren't compatible with me. I just need help with filling my void with people who are like-minded.

The public relative to you is anyone else "out there in society", people you don't know.

If you only interact with people in a perfunctory manner, they don't have the opportunity to annoy you. But when you read about them in the news, for example illegal aliens who demand civil rights and welfare, you'll see that they are in fact annoying.

That's an interesting point of view, I mean we are what we want, we shouldn't live on expectations of others, and that include your family I think. Who are they to tell us what to do seriously. I was born to live a joyful and fulfilling life who has a meaning for me. I'm not here to follow the crowd and act blindly like a sheep following the normalcy.

[Mondrian]

So what? You hate people. I hate things and people too sometimes.

Your self-righteousness about this isn't very likable to me.

Arn't people/we just trying to do the best for them/our selves as far as they/we can see what that is?

I like a lot of things about people too. Even people that I hate in some ways.

Your post is largely rhetorical, a rant. Where is the substance in your claims about how despicable people are?

Having said that, I think there is a lot to hate. Is that because we have ideals that arn't lived up to?

I havn't really thought all this through, though.

[Curious cat]

I don't share your perspective. Most people i come across are pleasant and decent. I often come across random strangers who stop their cars on numerous occasions just for me to cross the road (and there weren't pedestrian crossings). I also get alot of smiles or a "G'day" when i cross people while on walks around the neighbourhood.

You are entitled to your perspective. For whatever reason, you feel justified in reaching your conclusion. I just hope that in consequence, you are not limiting your quality of life and unintentionally closing yourself off from moments/people you could have enjoyed otherwise.

Why? What difference does it make to you about the OP's quality of life and moments of enjoyment?

[Angela]

Omerta, I don't think you are alone in feeling the way you do (I don't happen to, but I've heard other people making similar complaints).

What are you going to do about it?

[Curious cat]

I'm not sure where you are going with this, or why you care that i care, but to answer your question, I generally like to wish people well in their endeavours. You could say it's part of our humanity to care about our fellow humans.

I never understand this kind of point about "following the crowd".

I think it has to do with my character. I'm an INTJ and many INTJs simply never feel much of a compulsion to "follow the crowd". INTJs don't have to kick up a fuss about this kind of issue. If they don't feel like following, then they just don't follow.

How ironic.

If you interact with people in a perfunctory manner, then they don't annoy you.

But if you have no interaction with them AT ALL - and you merely read about them in the news - you feel annoyed.

That's how I know they'd be annoying if I got to know them.
