I've noticed in society people treat nice people terribly until they eventually get them to break. And then the bullies act nice and pretend they don't know whats wrong with the person whose spirit they broke. It's like they want to wear there identity but have to get you to break before they can take it.
its what i feel about reddit! the whole karma effing system! i make a high quality post and its removed, but when get PISSED tired of effign bots removign my post when i make a CRAPPY PISSED post or a test post to test if will be removed it POST and is NOT removed adn slammed on reddit sucks and is one the "Electronic ghetthos" that alex and others have talked about.
They treat you terribly because they want you to stop acting like everyone has to like you because your nice…at least that’s my experience once I understood that not everyone has to like me this became a lot easier to deal with in respect to “bullies” it’s less about bullying and more of a hardcore wake up call. now what they don’t understand is that if they are not clear or not willing to follow through it just leaves you lost and then you’ll wonder and ruminate on what you did wrong when it was not even that deep. Another problem with it is that not everyone is ready to bounce back from someone telling them about themselves A.K.A. bullying them. Sometimes people are definitely being assholes but a lot of the time people are just trying to shock you into what you need to hear not all disrespect is there to hurt you.
1. Don't idolize anyone 2. Question authority 3. Know how to recognize evil 4. Be aware of cults, open or disguised 5. Know you're as flawed and dangerous as any other, so be constantly vigilant about doing the right thing. Being good is a active effort, not a passive inheritance.
@FinUgShiet if you aren't a child at least mentally, you won't lash out on those who aren't the reason you are upset Or so it should be Most of people a just a big babies who can't handle their frustration
@@FinUgShietYeah totally, not like most if not everyone would warn you first that you should leave them alone because they've had a bad day. If you somehow dont have the mental capacity to read very basic expressions and understand even more basic language that they are irritated and kept bothering them, you deserves to get yelled at. That example is so bad, i cant even think of any other words to simply describe it
Having the ability to comprehend these concepts is like a curse in this world. You know that something is wrong and when raise your voice against it, it is cut down and you are labeled as a weirdo. Only very few people can relate to this issue and that is sad.
Indeed, it’s truly disheartening to feel isolated in your understanding, especially when it seems like so few can connect with the depth of your insights and the pain of going unrecognized.
Very few people have gone to the depths that it takes to actually understand this video, and either slayed their dragon, or at least made it back out the door. ""He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." - Nietzsche" The thing is, no one fights with monsters anymore. Heck, few even take philosophy, or learn it on their own. And those unprepared (who lack the tools) to fight monsters, may very well be consumed by them. And that, in itself, is a frightful proposition. Whether you have the tools or not. Additionally, very few people seem to stop and think about ANYTHING anymore. Just "feed" me. We can't even be bothered to ask a question about what I want to watch. 😂
Say all four of us in this comment section are individuals, as stated by the comment post, people who can think outside of the box, thats 4, say we double that to 8, Multiply by 8 more, thats 64, so far 60 more individuals who can do the same, we go on and on, a hundred, a thousand, a hundred thousands, that is how many people who can also do the same, till we realize every and each one of our equals can do the same, what differ us is the whole cascade of factor behind everyone's personality and situation, and then it becomes a matter of understanding we are not alone, just disconnected due to causality
It's okay to get angry. It's okay to set boundaries and limits. It's okay to be strong and take control. Being Good or Godly doesn't mean you have to be a doormat.
@@mariaslamat4999doormat means that you're essentially letting your boundaries loose for the sake of others, in which sometimes they might not treat you nicely, and they can "step" all over you, like a doormat
Remember, people treat you based on what you tolerate and some people will see how much you're willing to tolerate to know how to work around you. So set your boundaries firmly.
@@ShreddedSteelgive people enough respect to treat them as humans… but beyond that You have to earn it regardless of your title I mean respect your parents but respect can be earned and lost
Smh, we all grew up in Christian culture and Jesus said to turn the other cheek... But nothing will get people more disgusted with you than seeing you "not have a backbone", and it's sad honestly.
i feel like the nicest people are almost immune to bad people. they just assume the best whenever something bad happens to them whereas a bad person will assume the worst and get angrier.
I would distinguish between good people and nice people. Good people do what is right even when the price for being good is to lose friends and make enemies. Nice people are just people pleasers not really caring if it's right or wrong. They are often enablers and harm others due to their passivity and inability to go into confrontation.
"It's possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not weakness. That is life." This quote got stuck with me for days after watching this video. It's from Star Treck and this hits hard
@@ArtificiallyAwareit kind of does doing things properly and still not getting things makes people evil and will always do. It's just that we have so much less time on earth eventually when we don't get what we want we have the option of having it and losing everything we are and becoming evil or never fulfilling our dreams or stand a chance to.
I'd like to add dimension to that by defining that having setbacks and challenges is not losing, it's just what life does to you. Losing is a part of the mindset scale of how you cope with the adversity. Losing is when you are mentally caving in and giving up, being overwhelmed, not managing to accept, commit and adapt. The opposite of losing is then to manage, take control, learn, improve, gain self-confidence, -efficasy and -esteem. Essentially differing between what happens to you and what happens in you.
@@dah_goofsterif you’re born good you never had to struggle and fight to learn from the error of your ways. The one born into it will take it for granted, born good, but doesn’t mean they’ll STAY good. So it is better to overcome than be born with it
@@ethanbard3067 I don’t think you understand the point I’m trying to make. You’re viewing this as a strictly selfish choice, I’m looking at from border point of view. If you’re born evil you have to hurt lots of people to figure out what’s good, how is that helpful to anyone but yourself? If you’re born good and just know right from wrong and always do what’s best for people, then the only thing that can ruin that is someone who’s evil. So a society filled with naturally good people is much better than a society filled with naturally evil people. Life is already hard enough, but now you have to battle with other humans trying to make your life a living hell just so they can learn good from evil. Being born good is 100% much better than being born evil. Your argument is essentially “I was born with no legs and learned how to walk without them, so I’m much better than people who were born with legs and never experienced the struggle.” Although the evil version of that analogy would be stealing someone’s legs and learning to walk with them lol
@@dah_goofsterit is really not that simple. maybe einstein didnt want to believe it but if there is a god, he loves him a good old fashioned game of craps.
@@johanneskepler873 there is no single god at least not in the sense that religions seem to believe. The sheer volume of different religions and beliefs and the fact that there’s many cultures that have no religion at all is a huge clue that they are all made up. So by extension god is always going to be a mirror of human nature. Our “god” is programmed into us while we are being raised by our parents and by society. Then again wtf do I know, I’m multiple times abandoned and filled with plenty of trauma and mental illness. I would say don’t choose my path, just take the one that helps you fit in to society and make you feel like you belong.
No, not entirety. People mistaken kindness for weakness. A lot of people are just weak, so play nice to get on everyones side. A truly good person is one who knows his evil and what he is capable of, yet refuses.
Sadly, I actually witnessed this first hand. For several years, we lived next door to a man who was an awesome neighbor. He was kind, helpful, and considerate. He treated our children wonderfully and made them feel special and important. He was a very well respected member of the community. He was the type of guy people came to for help and guidance. He also had a wonderful family and smart, educated children.. One day, after a business deal went sour with some former coworkers, a man and a woman, he drove to their office and shot them both to death. They were both middle aged parents with children still at home.. He destroyed 3 families that day. No one has any idea what could cause a man like that to snap so violently, and unfortunately, no one will ever get the chance to ask as he turned the gun on himself later that day. It's scary how quickly a human being can take a turn for the absolute worst.
Even the most patient person, once reached the limit, can explode, unfortunately, doing good doesn’t always come back. Unfortunately, maybe no one ever bothered to think that there’s something wrong with him, or ever done something significant, just because they only see his outside. I don’t know your neighbor, i don’t exactly know his reasons, i’m only giving you answers based in researchs and personal experience. As someone who usually gives advices, i can say that sometimes i don’t believe in my own words, but i still do it, so i could help them.
@themaximusyang8645 Yea you're right.. my husband has always felt guilty because my neighbor was going to help us with something that night and he called my husband to confirm that we would meet at 7pm. We later found out that when he made that call, he was a minute or two from their office with a loaded weapon. My husband told me that he didn't sound right, so he's always felt bad he didn't ask him if everything was ok. Like maybe he made that call, knowing where he was headed, because he was hoping someone/something would talk him out of it. Sadly, we'll never know and I've told my husband, it's not a burden you should carry.
@after_dark_777 I know you were speaking metaphorically, but, you're actually more right than you know. My husband just retired after 22 years in the military. Our neighbor was also retired military. I believe he did about 25 years. My husband did 7 deployments in his 22 years and he's been in some pretty awful situations. Because of it, he's battled depression for many years, though most people would never know it. It's very possible that our neighbor had similar struggles but tried to hide it from everyone and deal with it on his own.
I've seen some people volunteer for "anti-bullying" seminar or anything similar to that and then later on when that seminar is finished, they'll laugh and talk shit about those people who opened up or shared experiences of being bullied. That's where I learned not to trust anyone at all even if they appear to do good. Sometimes, evilness wins and gets most of the attention while the ones that tried to do good or be good are set aside..
That's what separates action from intention. You can choose to do good things, but if you never actively embody the compassion to help others, it's not any different from lying. Compassion is an emotion that has to come from a place of genuine humility and kindness. You can try to help others without it, but you will fail to see the connection you are making and you will never improve.
Never accept people as what they say they are. Learn to watch what they do. If the two don’t match, avoid them. You can always tell the genuinely good people. They’re always kind and thoughtful, even if on the surface they’re irritable or grumpy, when there’s no reward and they think no one is looking. The little things. The assholes never are.
This is the idea that’s at the center of the Joker’s character. In ‘The Killing Joke’ he said “All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy. That's how far the world is from where I am. Just one bad day.”
@@BurningSands_FGC yeah thats true good pointing out. batman and joker were both doing what they thought was right, and both are flawed in multiple ways. Batman is just seen as "justice" because he is on the side that is constantly kicking down, and then waiting for someone to lash out and act like an animal after being treated like one for too long so they can justify further torment.
I have always disliked authority, and even today i go out of my way to make sure people who feel they have power are held accountable for what i believe is wrong (withing my reach of course), i do not hide myself or separate myself from what i do. I have goals and beleifs and i will not follow anyone blindly, I do not care who you are or who you think you are, i make my own decisions. even when everyone says im wrong. That being said i dont beleive im a good person, but i at least beleive in making sure people do not have to be harmed or tortured just for being. I have a moral compass and i am unbreakable in that.
Same. There is a heavy-brainwashing that convinces people that it is good to respect authority and people who don't respect authority are bad people. I am as non-confrontational and submissive as they come. I am literally one of those who says "i'm sorry" about 100 times a day, and I usually have no idea what I am saying "I'm sorry" for it is just an ingrained, conflict avoidance, habit. However, I get inexplicably rage-y and obstinate with police, managers, or nurses. My husband has noted that it is like a switch flips and he doesn't even know who the hell I am anymore. I have always had this almost uncontrollable anger at those particular groups and I never knew why. I don't have some dramatic backstory of abuse or anything. My dad worked with the local police force and we had plenty of police that were family friends. I am not living a life of crime and I have never been arrested...knock on wood. I get along fine with police as long as they are being regular people, but the instant they put on the cop persona I instantly get irritable and uncooperative. My husband is the one who finally pointed out the obvious connection that was triggering the uncharacteristic anger and obstinance in me: it is authority. I don't like authority. That was a hard reality for me to accept because I am obnoxiously docile and always worried about whether or not we are going to get in trouble for something. My worst case scenario is being told I screwed something up. I am a people-pleaser to the point that I annoy myself with my passivity sometimes. I cry at basically everything...how could I be anti-authority?! But he is dead right, that is exactly what triggers the rage and resentment in me. Just as much as "I'm sorry" is a knee-jerk reaction for me most of the time, complete obstinance and anger is my knee-jerk reaction to being "ordered" to do anything, or being told that I "have" to do something. I was raised with the ingrained belief that we are all equal members of the human race. There are not elevated humans and inferior humans , there are just humans. The uniform and the badge do not make the police officer a wiser or more powerful person and I have more education that most police officers so I view them as peers, fellow adult humans, no better or worse than me. When they bark orders at me they are telling me that I (and whoever else they are ordering around) are inferior and that makes me angry. I really wish that more people were anti-authority. I think a little bit of respect and humility could fix a lot of the current problems. You don't have to like people, or approve of their lifestyle but we should be able to accept that every person has just as much value and right to do what they want with their life as we do.
Agreed. The concept of being nice and kind being two different things is an illusion that modern day society has built to pull the wool over our eyes to think etiquette and formalities is a good thing. Its only good for what it does, face value effects. A truly nice person and a truly kind person, the word truth says it all. Theyre the same. And those who are only polite, arent good, theyre just good at playing the game society wants them to do. Do what is right, live righteously through first justice with mercy and grace. @user-fu4wy5il5v

They RARELY happen. Very, very few blessed souls are able to pass away comfortably in a warm bed, surrounded by family. It’s why when I read a fictional story, I seek out ones with happy endings. We have to build them for ourselves, but even in all our efforts we might not achieve it on this plane of existence.
With that said, being religious, serving in the military, or being a charity organizer doesn't automatically make you a good person. As someone who served, I learned that the hard way. Before joining, I was under the impression that those in the military are vastly different from ordinary civilians. That they're very good people with great morals. Boy was I wrong. A majority of people in the military are no different than ordinary civilians. They can be just as bad and cruel with twisted morals
@@joemama4473yea especially nowadays when (at least in America) u don’t NEED to join the military bc it’s not like we’re getting invaded or anything, I wouldn’t rlly expect good ppl to be in there when the main thing u gotta desensitize urself with is killing others
You're right, know fam and friends in the military, the stories I hear of men and women that are in service and out have a superiority complex , entitlement and ego. I still meet a few humble ones here and there but yeah the bad ones outnumber the good ones by a lot
Some of the people that treated me horrible asked me for forgiveness. While they hurt me they laughed, and mocked me. I never forgave these people. I never believed their sincerity at all. My body, and mind endured torture, and shame. My power after they couldn't hurt me anymore was silence. Their torture was not my pain. I wanted them to feel my emptiness. I wanted them to feel what they inflicted in me.
@@danilaroche1156 I'm very happy. I am not obligated to feel any guilt about that choice. I'm not a religious person. You have me confused with someone else. I don't need any guidance from anyone.

This is why I strongly believe in intelligent disobedience. And if I see something as harmful or socially damaging, I exercise my own judgement and refuse to participate. Because it is true, no one starts off as a sadistic monster, they are developed into a complete lack of empathy and humanity.
i dont know if disobedience is what your looking for in word choice there. i get you tho. i agree. i think the word your looking for is disinterest. people who care less about people and what they think or say and instead have their interest in things and not people often are the pacificst.
Uh, no, there are conditions within the development of the human brain which can start people off without empathy and "humanity". While I myself don't think I'm bad because I often try to be helpful to those who I care about and look after them, since I have Asperger's, the part of my brain that's responsible for empathy isn't well developed thus I have some trouble understanding and empathizing with others feelings and such.
Incredibly false, most people have to develop these traits but a psychopath for example is born with a rewired brain. The monster part is true though. Not everyone who suffers from Psychopathy is a monster. It’s a sickness at the end of the day.
Well, you're answer is there, why would a Stranger hurt you, out of nowhere, it makes more sense that you get hurt by someone who knows you, it makes more sense, so no surprise there
I got broken by narcissists and bullies during my Engineering Education. Now I am slowly joining my pieces together to become whole again and be strong...
I’ve been trying for 30 years, to undo what’s been done to me. I don’t think it ever can be undone, once you see that side of humanity it stays with you.
@Ninnjette- in the exact same boat used to be a social butterfly then society got a hold and bit by bit I withdrew from society then family and friends threw me under the bus a fair few times now I'm a misanthropic hermit
Have you completed Engineering? The fun fact is that in most countries, including the US, Engineering has a HIGH turnover rate, so it's highly likely that the people who weren't focused on studying and were instead focused on drama, parties, and bullying you didn't make it through to the end of the year. And if not, well you're away from them either way. It takes time to heal, but you'll be alright in the end. No matter what you do, if you keep trying you'll be better than before.
You all don't know how close we were... The COVID years were eye-opening. My outlook on life changed dramatically after seeing the behavior of those 'just following orders.'
I learnt the hard way that “no good deed goes unpunished” is not a euphemism but the sad reality, I got treated much better by those I didn’t care for and now I just stopped caring for anyone who is not my friend or family
Here in the city where I grew up, there was a man who was literally a legend. Always friendly, helping and supporting everyone. One day he was sitting in a restaurant, eating and drinking. Then like 6 guys started bothering him. First he offered them to sit with him and eat and drink together. They continued to be idiots and everything ended up when he threw them around like little toys since he was 2+m tall and had bodyweight of 170-180kg with large % of muscles. Of course he didn't switch to the evil side after that and continued being a legend. Also not many people wanted to try their luck to make him angry. So, the best approach is to be a good guy, but also you need to be dangerous enough to demotivate people when they want to act like idiots...
@rhondahoward8025 I'm not a fighter and that's why I always say if someone decides that they want to fight, they better fuckin kill me, because I'm too small of a person to fight.

This reminds me of a poem by Alexandr Solzhenitsyn: "The most terrifying force of death comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. The moment the Men who wanted to be left alone are forced to fight back, it is a form of suicide. They are literally killing off who they used to be. Which is why, when forced to take up violence, these Men who wanted to be left alone, fight with unholy vengeance against those who murdered their former lives. They fight with raw hate, and a drive that cannot be fathomed by those who are merely play-acting at politics and terror. True terror will arrive at these people's door, and they will cry, scream, and beg for mercy... but it will fall upon the deaf ears of the Men who just wanted to be left alone."
This is the way. At 32 I finally understand this after years and years of being “too nice” and ending up being punished and used for it. It didn’t make me jaded, I’m still kind, but I have boundaries and I’m not afraid to be assertive anymore.
@@Th3BigBoy I guess it's that being nice means behaving in a good way, but being kind is actually embodying wishing well to others, not just acting like you do for the sake of peace or acceptance.
I was recently told that I'm a bad person for wanting to have good faith discussions with people on the opposing side of an issue. I will never stop seeing the humanity in others and extending a hand of understanding.
Spoke to my wife about this recently and I told her that it’s strange how bad people, A-Holes etc always seem to get the fruits of life. I told her I wonder if we weren’t good people if life would treat us better. My personal answer to why good people turn evil is because life just shows good people daily that the people who step over others and don’t care for others get more blessings from life then people who do good deeds and live righteous lives. This is just my opinion of course but that’s my answer to the question.
@John_R_Jackson_III Interesting take! It’s wild how the world often rewards the bold and selfish. But do you think it's really about the actions, or maybe perception? What if the "blessings" are just illusions, masking deeper consequences? How do we define true success in the end?
I think we are selective seers. perspective is what matters. We people are made to see things in our own way. Maybe we ignore what good things we have that the bad ones can never ever have in their whole lifetime and beyond. Maybe we play victime to feel better about ourselves. So maybe life treats evil people in the same way too. You never know. It's just that we have to be proud that we're facing problems while doing good things while they're facing problems while doing bad things.
The greatest life question from all religions is: Is that worth it to you? If youre a good person, you wouldn't trade your moral spirit for material wealth. This is the crossroads where the devil waits happy to trade you whatever you want in this temporary world for your everlasting pure soul. Not a great bargain in the end.
Even the ancient greeks agreed that true hapiness comes from virtue and being good. Being an asshole might get you benefits and riches sure, but that is not real hapiness. Real hapiness comes from within, not in having more, but needing less

@@colinlpeace that’s the point. When the pedophile was abused, it doesn’t excuse his actions but it doesn’t excuse the persons who hurt him either. Actions have consequences whether we like them or not. It’s about breaking the trauma circle really.

Imagine if after 9/11 the U.S was like.. well it’s evil to retaliate so we choose peace. Not really how it works ya know.

It's surprising to me that others just accept everything around them without questioning it. It's also amazing how easy it is to control the masses through speech and perceived authority alone.
People are fools. They do not care about something if it doesn't immediately affect them in the moment, or if it's outside the scope of their daily lives. That is what makes them loathsome.
I guess the people who just accept are also the ones who are the most normal people who are selected for these experiments. Since they don't question what they do. Since I'm questioning a lot I don't understand why people have behaved like this in the experiments. Because at the end of the day. You are responsible for what you do. Always
@@hungder People don't want to be responsible, i'm afraid. They want to be led around towards happiness by the proverbial shepherd. They are sapient beings, yet lack will.
A pattern I observed people of all ages do at some point: 1 - Choose someone and provoke them physically or psychologically, somehow, someway. 2 - Should the provoked one retaliate in any way, shape, or form, accordingly to the situation, act surprised and pretend to be the victim. 3 - Downplay the provoked one's reaction by telling him it's exageratted or by being extremely offended by his reaction.
That happens to me too often, literally earlier it happened again, i guess i don't learn from it, but what else can i do yk, can't just stop talking to people, i mean maybe i could just never retaliate even if the other is clearly in the wrong in whatever way, which is pretty hard for me sometimes, all got some kind of ego deep inside, and obviously Feelings
That statement is true... For humanity. Not for me... Because I am All and Void as One. In other words, most people live but very few walk higher. I'm only merciful because I choose to. Never mistake it for weakness. I can always 180 turn my morality into true malevolence. In benevolence, I rather not have to judge Humanity. They sow their own Fate.
That is because a sand castle isn't a real castle. It is a fake one. A pretend castle. A real castle can survive a hurricane. Similarly, someone FAKING having morals isn't really moral. They are a fake and when they're exposed they will crumble.

It is very easy to see true evil. There is natural law that is objective and seen by every sane person and there is the intent to act against natural order which is evil. Of course we make mistakes but there is absolutely no mystery surrounding true evil and true good.
It's really not lol. Considering this video describes majority of society to an exact T, society is very very close to collapsing. Mostly because there's no inner dialog in most people's consciousness. There's no questioning up there. They just do what they're told. Which is not how any prosperous society works.
Even though im not religious its thanks to that why were somewhat even civil it coincides with Our general laws and instituitions that are set by the goverment to follow inclduing how our morality is justified
It's all thanks to "obeying the authority" by obeying the authority you do what the most learned wants you to do coz it's easier. And the leader most likely WANTS the society to not fall apart because he has the authority and would like to keep it.
it starts in school when you fight back against bullying and get punished for it, and then it’s just downhill from there. but hey, that’s why we’re humans and can’t have anything nice.
No that is a normal occurrence, you’ve missed the point entirely and that’s how easy it always was. You’ve never looked at it a different eay you don’t seem to have the capacity to explore any further in concept. The goal is not to justify the bullying in of itself it’s to recontextualize the subjects that are ridiculous and affirm the ones that aren’t. Successfully altering the perception of reality. You think they care about maintaining order it was never about justice. It was about making a choice which humans failed in choosing correctly and now they get to define your morals.

"You need to question everything." Yes. Never blindly or automatically accept something for face value. That doesn't mean distrust everything. If always strive for the unfiltered and untampered truth, you will never be led down a dark path in life.
@@ajflink when the cashier at the grocery asks for money, you need to start a dialogue about the concept of money and whether it is necessary 🤣 Jokes aside, true 😅
I think you should distrust everything. At least until you can say definitely each thing, on it's own, is good, or true. From birth till death, we're lied to, about nearly everything. Even by those like our parents, or ' authorities ', that THINK they have good intentions or ' our best interests ' at heart.😢 I learned far too young that, 1, the world was not what it was cracked up to be, and 2, that it was an evil place that could devour a person, or their soul. In fact it's like a dark jungle, with many paths, some dark, some light, many branching, looping, converging. Hard to find a totally good way thru, without being corrupted or eaten.😢
You should read the dune series. In it, there is a group of people who have a theory the use to sort who they will allow to have power. They tell a person to put their hand in a box, and when they do, they tell them if they take their hand out of the box, they will be killed instantly. Then the box makes that person feel extreme pain. The idea is the animal cannot control itself. It is subject to its instincts, and so it takes its hand out of the box. It takes being a human to keep your hand in the box, because it takes your conscious self wilfully overriding all your instinct to do it. Would you keep your hand in the box? Maybe youve just never met anyone who would.
I’ve been burned by so many people I trusted deeply it’s incredibly hard for me to trust anyone. I keep everyone at arms reach. Definitely makes you feel alone
The pain of human isn't something universal to all, you can be human without it meaning pain, that requires taking responsibility for yourself instead of being driven between "too good" and "completely evil" the truth lies in between If being human hurts too much, you're not being the right kind of human, it's not perfection or nothing, you aren't less than human for not living in the pain which being "too nice" brings, and if my words fall to deaf ears, experience will teach people most in time
in a way this even makes me somewhat optimistic, if we all have the capacity for good and for evil, then nobody is truly a monster, it’s just people choosing the wrong path, but they can always come back
That’s very true, but, sadly, it’s much harder to admit to wrongdoing and go back than it is to do harm in the first place. I would argue that the number of people who manage to turn themselves around is even smaller than the number of people who succeed in staying mostly kind and compassionate for their entire lives.
@ArtificiallyAware I guess you can also go into lucifer and god on the perspective on lucifer why he thinks he was doing the right way and/or why rebel on God or something like that...

I'm at the crossroads as well...being a good man has brought me nothing but pain and abuse. I do wonder if going to the other side would bring me happiness. Because i feel none anymore.
@cg4259 the fool I once was would've agreed. But it did feel good getting revenge by telling the truth, to no consequence of my own. Good people just get manipulated and abused. No one would dare try someone who is cold and callous.
@cg4259 you are quite kind but once you've been manipulated, lied to, and betrayed after so many years of kindness and loyalty to such despicable characters...there's just no other option anymore. Being good gets you nowhere. I'm not the aggressor but being cold will deter these selfish people from ever trying me again. I was lied to at every turn and I read the truth through body language and investigation. Yet they still thought of me as a fool because I was too loyal and kind. The good always suffer while the evil feel nothing. The pain and depression I felt was far too great; I was abandoned. Never again
I tried to be nice to everyone but they test my patience so i gave up on that but i was never able to purposefully hurt someone even if i wanted to so i found my comfort zone which is in the middle im just looking out for myself now
What happens when you pick the evil side? What happens when there is no "good" side because all the sides are wrong? If you just "pick a side" because it's easier than trying to do the work of understanding other viewpoints, then you will only ever see what people tell you to see, you'll never know the whole story.
I don't think picking just one side is good either. After all, if you are only nice to one side, are you really a nice person? A lot of criminals and bad people treat people they like nicely.
@@mariustan9275 I don't want to be nice, nor do I want to be liked by everyone. Not even God can achieve that if he even exists. I just want to be with people that matter to me, that's it. If I see a stranger in need of help, fine I'll help them, if I can but I'm not here to make friends.

years of isolation and self reflection have in fact revealed to me that i am not a good person and not only that,but that in fact no one is a good person we are all just acting,it's a survival mechanism,we want to be classified as good people,because then we are included,accepted etc.... majority of people will try to refute this but you have to understand that only because they dont want to see it,they want to believe they are good and well...i can understand that..for we all have to sleep at night,right?
We’re not all just acting brother, that must be a projection. No one is ENTIRELY good, but if you lead your life with compassion, empathy, and love, you will stop caring about being “accepted” or “included” and you will understand what it means to be a good human. There are good humans out there and I promise you they are not just acting
I agree and have come to the exact same conclusion after 5 years of isolation and introspection. I do not feel that I am a good person even though by normal societal standards I would be considered one. When years get devoted to breaking down one's own ego, it's terrifying to discover how much we suppress to convince ourselves we are good. I think Carl Jung was onto something with the understanding of the shadow self. The scariest and most dangerous people to give power to are the ones who think they would never cause harm. Those are the ones which are not in touch with their shadow selves and are incapable of seeing the signs that they are becoming depraved and drunk with power. Those that are at least aware of their capability for evil are at least capable of seeing the red flags. People cannot fight in themselves what they don't recognize exists.
You’re literally saying that being good increases survival so it’s in our code to be good. If it’s survival then it’s not acting because people want to survive genuinely 😂
@@3Kefka6Palazzo9 to be a good human you must be in touch with your shadow self.

Honestly, thank you for making this. Getting fresh out of high school and into college, it’s shifted my world a lot. I don’t have my family, none of my friends, and I’m all alone. My room8 is an ass and I can tell I am an arm’s length from everyone despite all my efforts. Then to be later told by my brother(the person I look up to the most) that when I get this age, that it’s me vs everyone, and no one here really cares. It’s latched to me permanently, if not all of it then some of it. I cant really feel any connection when I talk to people, even though I’m a genuinely calm person. I stopped wanting people to try my food(cook every now and then), and I don’t make the same effort to connect with others. I’ve always known some of it, if not all is true, but it hurts to consider. Hurts to think the world is truly cruel. It makes me think very bad things, but I never act on them. I am starting to hate people and not believe they are as good as they are, and I feel myself slipping into pessimism and lack of care. I still love my family, but that’s about it. I Just do what i have to do and it’s exhausting. I don’t want to fall into this state of perpetual apathy with occasional fleeting happiness. I just want to feel like I am not being tortured. I have flaws, I can be angry at time.

I've questioned everything for years and what pushes me is everyone around me telling me to follow orders, to fit in, to let things go. its this constant pressure from all sides that ignites my darker impulses
They tell you to fit in but also to be yourself. They tell you to have self-compassion but loathe you if they sense any self-pity. Everything they say they want you to do is actually just a test to see if you will do it and not because they want you to. How is one not to go insane? Stop being afraid of being hated.

Etc.
I’m autistic - I struggle with knowing what is right or wrong. I also don’t become attached to people; I like to have people I can depend on, and I love the people I keep around me, but I don’t miss them when I’m not with them. I don’t miss anyone…ever, but I love seeing - for example - my grandma because I love her and I’m very close to her. I also don’t like to show affection physically (like hugging) or with words - it makes me uncomfortable. I don’t like to express emotions often - unless I’m overwhelmed by happiness or having a meltdown, you’d think I didn’t have any emotions - I can also be quite monotone. Some people don’t think I can self reflect either, like I don’t have a conscience or remorse. I do - sometimes - it just doesn’t come naturally to me. It’s something I’ve had to work on in order to understand rights and wrongs and how I affect others. Also with having Misophonia and Body Dysmorphia I am prone to sudden anger and depression. Reading all that about me, you’d probably say I wasn’t a good person. However, I have never INTENTIONALLY harmed, upset or hurt anyone. I have good manners, I have a great sense of humour and like to make others laugh. I also treat my 3yr old cat like my child, he has everything he would ever need and more - he gets tons of love and affection from me and he always shows me the same love back. My family love me very much and everyone would say I’m a kind, sensitive, shy and caring person. Would I describe myself as evil? No. But am I a good person? No. I’m learning to not view everything as black and white, that people can be both good and bad…myself included.
What's funny is I'm not autistic, and I don't have misophonia, and I'm actually a musician (or was)... but I've grown to really either have no reaction to or flat out hate music these days. A musician who "hates" music. Who'd have thunk it? I dunno... just sometimes, I'll have some musical inspiration and I'll play for like an hour, and when I end, I'll just feel a sick feeling like I have a bad hangover for a few minutes. I'll wonder "What was the point of that ridiculous noise?" I'm also what the folks have classically called a Christian. I know on a very deep level that I am not good. On a very deep level, I can empathize with even the most abominable of evil because I in and of myself without God am abominable. Without God, I walk hand in hand with Satan himself. We could go into what that means for days but... I've learned to be wary of people who act too nice or ingratiating towards me or just in general. Goodness and niceness are two separate things. I don't necessarily even think "nice" is good. What is nice? It originally meant treating someone like they were mentally challenged I think. Bless their heart, as a "nice" person might say. Almost insulting to be treated "nice", wouldn't you say? The point of Love is not to love only people who are kind or agreeable towards you, or who say the right things, or who act the right ways, or who look the right ways. The point of Love is to love people despite the fact that they don't measure up. Ever. Our expectations just won't be met if we're expecting that perfect person or if our standard of judgment towards those around us is too high. We should love others whether they behave rightly or wrongly. That's.... very hard to do. Christ forgave those who were crucifying and mocking him. They were humiliating him to the highest degree and murdering him, and yet he just said "Father, forgive them. They don't know what they are doing." It's because there is no one truly good but God, since God is the source of all good. We cannot be good, but by God, we can know what good is and if we're open to it, God's goodness can come through us. People think this is ridiculous. Well, let's look at the alternatives deeply. What's more ridiculous in the end? I must say I'm a little jealous that you don't miss people when they're gone. It's a terrible thing to feel... and it's somewhat selfish to miss someone. Especially if they've died or if they went off to do something they really wanted to do. Our missing someone is purely us demanding they be here for our self, not for them. So missing people isn't necessarily an indicator of "goodness", but I will also admit that maybe it feels good to know someone was thinking about me. I haven't had that feeling since my mom died. I do miss her. Selfish of me. She's probably very much at peace now.

I've witnessed this monster in me a number of times. He, or I should say, am a selfish opportunist. For a number of reasons I concluded I'm better off living alone, where I can at least reflect on that shadow, and direct his rage to more noble endeavors.
But, hey, being selfish isn't always necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes prioritizing yourself is a right thing to do. And opportunities are also something to cherish. Sorry if this sounds encouraging in a wrong way, I don't know you and your circumstances indeed. But everyone has some imperfections about them. None of us are perfect but that's just the thing that makes us human. Maybe trying to integrate that part of yourself into something that doesn't harm anyone would be cool. It's something about self-control rather repression. Because "bad" feelings and thoughts have a reason, even if it's not logical or morally correct. Whatever you do, good luck, stranger of the Internet
You're not a bad person if you recognised this behaviour as problematic and did something about it. A selfish person would've embraced it and continued without care. People can change for the better.
I've been through horrible things, but I've come out the other side stronger for it. Would I necessarily say I'm a good person? I don't know. But at least I like who I am. And I think that's just as important.
Wow, what an incredible deep dive into the fragility of human morality! The way you explained Zimbardo's The Lucifer Effect is chilling, yet so eye-opening. "The line between good and evil isn’t just a philosophical concept, it’s a practical, everyday reality.'" That line really hit hard! It's terrifying how quickly our sense of morality can be swayed by circumstances, and your breakdown of obedience to authority, loss of personal responsibility, and dehumanization really drives that home. This video is a reminder that we need to remain vigilant and actively choose the light over darkness. Absolutely brilliant!
Being a good person is a choice, a choice we're all capable of making. It takes work, and we will make mistakes, but we must try and have faith that we can *do* good.
This is why I believe “At the East of Eden” is such a good movie. Pretty much the opposite of this happens, where the protagonist goes from a bad person to a good one. But most of all, its interesting because it portrays that being too morally correct can lead you to evil, and how sometimes good is found in moral ambiguity. The good men aren’t those who are always good, it’s those who know when to be good and when not to.
I joked with my sister recently how it seems like assholes live forever and kind people die too early. I think there's truth to that. People that are selfish don't worry themselves with other people's troubles. Kind people can kill themselves pleasing others.
9 times out if 10, we have a choice, to become a good person or bad person! We have to choose what path to walk down and what doors to walk thru. *always* _think for yourself and question authority!_ This has helped me stay on the right path for the last 20 yrs of my life.
"A King may move a man, a father may claim a son, but remember that even when those who move you be Kings, or men of power, your soul is in your keeping alone. When you stand before God, you cannot say, "But I was told by others to do thus." Or that, "Virtue was not convenient at the time." This will not suffice. Remember that." From kingdom of heaven
Exactly. There are so many people who justify doing horrible things by just saying "I was just doing my job! You cannot hold me guilty for doing those heinous things! I'm an angel!"
I just had my first big fight with my first girlfriend beacuse i was an asshole with her, i had a horrible day and i treated her badly because of the pain i was feeling (and because of heavy traumas that i have been strugglin with almost my whole life), i was selfish and honestly i felt like a monster. We spoke and we resolved the problem, i was able to admit my mistakes and i decided that i want to change and overcome my traumas, so i can become a better person, not only for her, but also for me, because i do not want to be that monster that i was when i treated her that way. I want to say thanks to you for this video, this came to me at honestly the perfect time and this honestly just motivated me a lot to keep working on myself and become the person who i want to be, resisting the temptations of evil and trying always to be my best version. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much.
So glad I found this video. These are things I have pondered over for YEARS. Starting with my own family. My siblings are horrible people, yet received all the love and support from my parents. I was treated like a slave. Always doing good, going beyond and sacrificing. Only to be told I didn't do enough, berated for failing or had my contributions minimalized. I watched how the WORST people get everything. It was infuriating. I often reveled in the joy I felt when I REALLY lost my temper a few times. How only THEN is everyone attentive and caring to me. Only when you made the fear you for a brief moment. I feel NO ONE has ever truly loved me despite my efforts. These days I have given up being "nice". Only to my small circle.....
I love how some people will just bully somebody over and over again until they snap then act as if it’s ”just something that happened.” Like it just appeared out of thin air, as if it was something random.
It's easy to understand. Being good is tough, and because it isn't something easy to do, surely you expect to be rewarded for it, no? You become a monster when you realize that all that effort being a good person was a waste of your time, and you got nothing out of it.
i’ve personally made some amazing friendships out of being a good person, expecting rewards out of anything is a dangerous philosophy, what you do should be what you do because its fulfilling to yourself, for me its being a nice person. i am firm in that. but also i’ve been rewarded so much, it just comes with time that you meet who you meet based on how approachable you are
Yea, i'm now to that point. I don't give a fuck for nothin, and noone. I am stranded in lonliness. After my wife left, I can't wait til i die. Life is different when u don't care anymore.
Have to disagree that after life failing to reward those who are decent the decent person becomes a monster. The decent person may snap and does something unexpected, but his or her character can not change. The point in the above is to highlight that evil people become such through habit, similarly, good people become good by habituation of personal responsibility, empathy with others and situational awareness regarding if and when the authority above crossed a line of ethical standards it preached before.
The recent expose on the Stanford Guard experiment scandal is so illuminating & disturbing. The guards got along with the prisoner’s & enjoyed their company. The researchers didn’t like that & strongly pressured & manipulated the guards to start abusing the prisoners. So, I believe most people are evil because of authority figures abusing their power & then the abused wants to regain their power by taking it away from others. A deadly cycle.
Indeed, if ordinary means not being aware yet. A person with strong developed beliefs will reject even someone of authority if it clash with their own.
@@SnowSNS11 Precisely. Social pressure does not make us waver in the slightest. We are true to our beliefs. Lest you find a flaw in there, we remain uncompromising. Ordinary is somewhere between a lack of awareness to partial awareness. When someone gains full awareness of what's really going on, that is when they escape the restrictions of their own mind.
@@Hivatel people with strong beliefs have the courage to be disliked. Even if everyone seems to disagree, we continue to walk the path we choose and believe is right for us.
@@SnowSNS11 It's not courage. It's simply another thing we are willing to sacrifice in our pursuit of higher ideals. Even if they do not understand us, even if they reject us, even if they refuse to even TRY to view things from our perspective, we follow our path because we believe in it. We knew we were going to be rejected from the beginning, because that happens to all ideas. Even the popular ones. There's always someone out there who disagrees with you.
But isn't to Obey also a choice in a way? Even a slave can try to fight back choosing not to do that would be making a choice so the slave is not a slave by choosing to be one right?

Somone can interpret good and bad differently it’s all about perspective. Some one could think murder is good and feel good when they do and one can think praying is bad and feel bad when praying the logic is flawed.
Exactly. That’s why there must be a line made that is never crossed EVER even though in the future humanity may think itself wiser to move the line. It mustn’t, for even if they are correct, that initial line moving will start a countdown to the collapse of sane society.
exactly why i never humor things that are bity bad , like saying no this is alright although it has slim evils and stress , i'm violently truthful when it comes to that because being truthful only shows the depth of the situation , not your own weakened view aside just let's be honest , how can being honest be a bad thing when we talk about an urgent fact needing topic ? it's not like the truth will harm anyone aside from potential evil doers and that's why i'm usually aimed at as if evil although clearly the scope was potentially evil at bed floor.
@@lordish-wp2xc Don't forget an important tool in being honest - obfuscation. Sometimes it is better to not answer a question than to answer it truthfully. For example, if a king you hate asks you "what do you think of me," it would not be good for anyone to answer your honest opinion. In this case, an obfuscation like "I think you're handling the recent situations about as well as expected" (because you expect him to handle them poorly and he is handling them poorly) is both truthful and will lead to a better outcome than telling him outright - kings are not known historically to let their detractors live.

I think the ability to commit violence and evil is in all of us, it's all just a matter of self control which varies between everyone. Edit: adding onto this I think changes in environment also has an effect, if everyone around you becomes evil or at least worse than normal because the situation/environment has changed around them for example if there was an apocalyptic event then it will make it harder for you to not become like them, but not necessarily because you're evil but rather you revert to your primal instinct to survive, I think a good example of this in fiction is the walking dead series, the main cast lose their morals and ideals throughout the show, they show disgust at Shane at the start who is a character who they all ultimately become in order to survive in the harsh world presented to them

I will always do what must be done to protect those that might still be good and innocent. I have never thought of myself as good but I have always been and will always be a protector. Knowing yourself is the most important task we can hope for.
I've heard a lot of stories about people who have gone down a dark path and done awful things, and though most the time their situation is unimaginably horrible, I'm still able to relate to parts of it sometimes. People are never born monsters, they were made into them by their upbringing, or the systems they live under. And though it's scary to think those same circumstances would've made me just as bad, it's also all the more reason to be a good person. It's a privilege to be capable of doing good, and to be in situations where doing good deeds is possible. The best thing we can do is try our best to take the choice to be a better person whenever it presents itself, even when it's hard. If circumstances can turn anyone into a monster, then being a good person has the potential to save others from those same monsters, or even becoming one themselves.
You want to know how it happens? Lose everything...get cheated time and time again by family or people you trusted...have people laugh at you when you fail or get injured severely...have family screw you so you lose your inner identity and all of your memories involve those people that ruined your life...i can keep going...im not a bad person but ive been thru so much i have a very bad side
I'll agree to all of this, along with my personal issues of having a whole two years of near constant feeling of terror in me due to my environments. I never really ever feel safe or comfortable anymore anywhere other than my bedroom, everything else is either blank or fear inducing, and the mania spirals as I try to grab anything that will keep me from falling apart. It doesn't work often. I grow numb as my body craves death, as it has for a decade and a bit more than that, making me lulled to sleep after having just slept for what people call "normal hours". Although if anything I'll say that I'm an absolutely terrible person, and I see this in other people while seeing this twice as much in me. Probably one of the worst people I know, and I can't shake the feeling it's true. Not because of being made to feel inferior to others, not just that anymore. But the genuine acknowledgement that I just got worse over time realizing I was a bad person and seeing all my faults. It really does absolutely suck to have it all, and then be utterly robbed of it.
I totally relate to everything you said and I've had identical same experience, however for some reason I refuse to come bad and I'm not sure why I just refuse to go that direction
I didn't stop being nice because I'm raised that way, it is because people around me push me off to a point and i realized I'm the one who is naive thinking everybody is raised like me, in the end im the one to suffer, so people like us slowly lean towards the hidden side of us where we start to treat society the way they treat us because our parents or we were raised with "Treat people how you want them to treat you" it applies to society but the innocent bystanders are the one affected the most
Yea, unfortunately but then I think I’m full of crap am I even nice or good or am I just fearful and guilty ? Even then I see certain traits in ppl and I think wow I can’t believe ppl actually think/feel that way, it will be the ppl u perceive as “nice” or good but then you’ll notice jealousy or Envy or str8 up pettiness from them and I think I’m pretty sure I never feel this way towards others so why does this person who I thought was nice or good feel this way, I understand we’re all humans and have egos but this is what I interpret what u said about not everyone is raised like u and me, pretty discouraging tbh one of the reason I never will really trust or connect or ever get too close with ppl
I hate that, whats even worse no matter how hard i try to mirror people (to be equal with them/ even if 90% of time i decide to calm my emotions and do it like "grown") Im friendliest person alive XD , been through literal hell and even after i still naive and subconsciously choose empathy and good way...

There is nothing wrong with selfishness alone. You do good for your own good. The difference between good and evil isn't selfishness, but rather knowing the true ways, or being mislead. Evil is ALWAYS self-destructive.
Evil people believe that they're acting for their own good, while in reality, they are acting for their own downfall, without realizing what the possibility of being good can bring them.
this is the problem. people are good because they hope that its reciprocated thats the whole point of "i want to do good so the world becomes a better place". why would i continue to do good with nothing in return. i'm not sacrificing myself for someone who wouldn't do the same.
Let’s be honest, nothing feels the same after being a kid. Once you realize hate, jealousy and envy exist; those 3 things can destroy any spirit and it’s our job to stay pure.
A death god "accidentally" dropped his notebook, then suddenly a Japanese gifted student found it. Hmmmm, probably the death god is thinking he's too good to use my notebook. 37 episodes later: 😬
Light was never a good person imo. I highly doubt he was even capable of holding affection. He just had self entitlement that coincidentally aligned with an overall considered mostly but not completely morally correct line of thinking (killing bad guys but the means justify the ways), which is why people could think he is good. Relatively, he is none. He didn't mind how people felt, he only cared about how he felt about himself. "Everything for the people but without the people".
no its just a very attractive idea. becoming the monster is the most painful thing. nobody truly wants to be the monster. it sure looks great to be a monster for a day when youre exhausted being with being nice. but being not nice doesnt make you a monster. it makes you a pacifist. being nice makes you an anarchist. forcing niceness always leads to anarchistic ends whereas being not nice is self serving to the point of self reliance and unburdening endeavors. counter intuitive but effective in practice. you can see this polarity represent itself in life too. the best sports teams with the best teamwork actually build people individually instead of working on the team as a team. you build the individual and it makes the team on its own. counter intuitive but true. life is polar. the bad guys often are the good guys and the good guys often the bad guys. portrayal is a weapon. knowing this is the master key to drawing accurate personas of people.
Being a bad person is like falling. One bad decision makes it easier to make the next one until you wake up one day hating the person you see in the mirror.
honestly i dont comment much but this video was litterly my whole journey across understanding morality after my logic failed me and i've got to say this video is the full package it has every aspect covered and im grateful to have come across this tnx so much..~!
I think it why being a non-conformist is important. Its a difference of wanting to be seen as a good person and being that person despite social acceptance.
I'll never be a monster to strangers, I don't know them or what they are going through. But to those close to me, if they push my far enough, I know I can snap and become their villian. I've been a hero to strangers and harsh to those close to me, both can exist simultaneously, the duality of human nature.
