I think there are more people like that than you'd expect. However media won't portray that. Bad news and shock horror titles bring in higher ratings than good news and feels.
Yeah, I know. Sucks to see the lengths that people will go to for money.

Right now i'm undergoing some kind of internal war, one half of me wants to forget everthing i just saw and go and murder some NPCs who probably didn't deserve it because taking too much notice of the mushy nonsense will get me burnt further down the line. The other half wants to walk outside and hug the nearest person and happily proclaim that its probably not as bad as they think and it will all be OK in the end.
Do the latter! It can really help people that are in a bad place.

I do have a short story I wrote about an experience I had one night about the goodness of mankind.
I'm sorry if it's kind of cheesy. It was 9th grade.
I would additionally post some pictures about mankind and humanity being awesome, but I can't find the corresponding images on the internet to link you guys to.
I didn't think that it was cheesy at all. I really enjoyed reading that, thanks for sharing!

Going through that made me tear up a little bit. And helped restore my faith in humanity. After an hour or so in and out of a few feminism threads and the suicide threads (Go go victim blaming) I needed that. I needed my faith in humanity to be restored.
We can be surprisingly amazing, us humans. Yes, we can be very shit, but awesome too.
That was one of the reasons I made this thread. There's been so much viciousness on here recently.

I'm crying now. That was beautiful. Thank you so much.
I'm glad that I'm not the only person that cried
