I am a misanthrope. However, I recognize myself as a human, and as such must see myself as the flawed jackass I am, and I have contributed to the goatfuck we call human history as much as Hitler, my mailman, or the old lady down the street. You can't assume all misanthropes are narcisists. I recognize my own flaws as quickly and readily as I do others', if not with greater expediency and discretion. I constantly hear people say things like "Everyone has good inside them." or "He's a good person, really, he raped and beat that woman because he grew up on the wrong side of the tracks." etc.; bullshit. People are like gay clubs: dicks wrapped in assholes. It's just most people can't handle the reality of the situation, so they stick their heads up their own asses and live in a world of blind naivete. Well, I'm tired so I'm gonna hit the hay. I'll check this thread tomorrow.
