Even if only 10% of the world sucks, that is enough for t"he world sucks" to be accurate. It is higher than that, and barely anything that happens doesn't include something negative as an outcome.
Community celebrations often uplift most people while ostracizing a portion of the population. Many people see things that could uplift everyone as zero sum games and then make sure they end up that way. Many times there are glaringly obvious solutions that are either held back or are implemented and then completely undone in short order by regressive groups. Even recognizing how many positive sounding slogans are blatant lies to mislead the masses, but everyone has fallen for them, is seriously depressing.
And all of that could be easily understood by the average person if they didn't want to believe the positive stuff was true and that those that speak up about unfair treatment are just seeing things wrong.

Level 2 INT:
Level 3 INT:
No, greater understanding doesn’t make it better. Things don’t happen in a vacuum and the good (or understandable) doesn’t cancel out the bad.

Level 1 : ideas are vessels of truth
Level 2 : ideas are toys
Level 3 : ideas are the spoor of alien sex demons
