Are there truly “good vs. evil” people in the world?

Question from the Internet:

“Are there people with negative value, meaning the world is far better off without them, including their loved ones?”

This is what the present “popular propaganda” wants us to believe. There are people who teach and spread that there exist “good” and “evil” people in the world. They insist that if we got rid of the “evil people”, “evil nations, cultures, religions, political ideologies, etc”, then we would have a beautiful world, full of “good people”.

But this is false, as unique, empirical natural scientists – who have been studying human nature for millennia – suggest.

We all have the potential to become “good people”, but by default, there is nothing actually “good” in us, in either of us.

We are all – without exception – born with a 100% self-serving, self-justifying, egotistic and exploitative nature. The only difference between people is according to our natural abilities, the actual conditions through which we can control, manipulate and exploit others, and what inherent hunger and willingness to sacrifice others and ourselves we have to get whatever we want.

According to these measures humanity is built according to a pyramid, the most hungry, selfish and ruthless people on top, while the less hungry, less selfish and less ruthless – but still selfish and egoistic – people below them.

None of us has any inherent ability to truly love and serve others, since we are all programmed to love and serve only ourselves, according to our instinctively subjective and individualistic “pleasure/pain” software.

Only when we have already humbly recognized the tru desires, intentions and driving forces in us, and we also developed a true, intolerable and irrepressible need and desire to change ourselves for the better – so we could actually and truly love and serve others as we instinctively love and serve ourselves – that is when we start a unique, this time conscious and purposeful self-development towards becoming “good”.

But until we lack the willingness and the methodical ability to objectively research ourselves and reveal the true desires, intentions and forces driving us, we are all negative and harmful to ourselves and to others. And this is why, right now, humanity is helplessly self-destructing, regardless of what certain people and media suggest or brainwashes us with.
