Well, sticking your head in the sand won't change humanity. In fact, that's one of the biggest problems: when bad humans do bad things, other humans usually stand idly by while the bad guy continues to do bad things. We all contribute to mayhem, war, murder, famine, pestilence and whatever negative stuff you can think of. Are my thought patterns bad for my mental health? No way! I'm a realist. I see things as they are and the human PR machine (just look at Star Trek how humans always come out on top) doesn't work on me.
I stopped reading at the subtitle "Misanthropy eats away at our ability to get life-saving stuff done" because you are making the assumption that human life is worth saving. We all know what happens when you assume. :) LOL.
