Despite the horrid things that occur in this world, I do believe that people are fundamentally good and want to do good for the people around them. The people that do evil things were not born that way.
Yep, the majority are good people that assume others are good people too. And they get ruthlessly exploited by sociopaths that end up ruling everyone and forcing all of us to live our lives along their zero-sum worldview.
In my experience, the vast majority of people are good. Like 99.9% of them. But there’s still evil people in this world. My grandmother is one, she’s tried killing my siblings twice, (the first time looked like negligence, after the second she wasn’t given another chance.) and gave her husband brain damage. Thankfully, she’s not related to us by blood.

Sociopaths exist and they rule the world.

Probably some narcissists too
