I just wonder if non-misanthropes have actually met people or if they’ve got this idealized view of them.

The latter. Can’t condemn them for their idealistic optimism. But at least i would shut up and not mock what I don’t really understand.
But that’s just me, an idealistic, optimistic, altruistic misanthropist 😁

Most people are not that smart and really self-centered.
From there just a little variance in the spectrum ranging from “I think as highly about others as I think about me” to “they are all inferior to me” can make a massive difference on how someone sees and interacts with the world.

It’s not that I feel I’m better. It’s that I know how awful I am and how little variance there really is to humanity.
If people are like me then they’re pretty awful.
