The best and worst of mankind.
I came across this heart warming YouTube whilst surfing around the other night..
It simply shows in 3 minutes how some humans can be so cruel, and others can be so kind.

Some people - the majority I think are cruel and careless.

I'd say that the majority of people are either kind or sort of neutral. Truly cruel people are a rarity, I think.

The neutral are the careless. There's a lot of deliberate cruelty dressed up as culture and food tradition, let alone the pure disregard for the welfare of animals world wide in work, sports, food production and allowing domestic animals to breed and then leaving them to a life of hunger and neglect.

This is a hard world to be a saint in. Children eating Happy Meals are contributing to global warming, deforestation and animal cruelty.
People soaping up in the shower are killing orangutans. Parents driving their kids to school are contributing to global warming and air pollution. People trying to prevent global warming and air pollution are killing birds and strip mining forests.
None of them intends to be a bastard -- the world is just set up now that in order to get by, you have to do things that are harmful to something else in some way.

True, we live in a throwaway, high tech age, the simple life of decades ago, where we took far less from the worlds recources are long gone.
But leaving a pet dog alone to die of starvation on a deserted island is a deliberate act of unthikable cruelty.

It would be sad if that were true Vintage, I hope it isn't.
I actually think the majority of people are not deliberately cruel or careless. We do tend to hear of them a lot more than the kind people though....kind people usually dont make the headlines.

I tend to agree with you. Nice stories about kindness don’t make headlines.

It's nice to see a story and rather than dwell on the bad, see the good in it.
Maybe people have come to be programmed to notice the bad rather than the good.
