Here's a question. If you had the chance to save the world. Let's say that some evil force from outside our universe came and you were the only person who could save the world. Would you do it? Why or why not? Would you do it happily or would you grumble about it?
I personally would, but barely. To be honest, it'd take a lot of goading to do it. It sounds jerk-a**ish, but I can't help but have nothing but disdain for 99% of the world nowadays. Sure, it's generalized, but after everything I've seen and heard in my 22 years on this earth, I can't help but feel a generalized hatred of just about everything.
Oh, I hear you.
I personally think that the world in general is big ole pile of suck...
But that's only in general.
If it came down to it, you're not saving it for the assholes, the cowards, the greedy or the exploiters.
You're saving it for the people you love, the ones who've shown you random acts of kindness, the people who gave you directions when lost, the ones who just gave a nice smile at an unexpected moment.
I've been feeling pretty misanthropic of late myself, but a good friend pointed out that the world doesn't have a vendetta against you personally, no matter what it seems like.
I have a dim view of human nature usually, but I find that for every prick and asshole out there, there's someone who's worth their weight in gold.
I'd save it for them.
