You're stuck on this rosy notion that the world operates on goodness, decency. But the truth is that all this will guarantee you is an early grave. But the biggest joke of all, the thing that will sink you every time - is hope. Hope that the world will right itself, that the just will be rewarded and the wicked punished. Once you buy into that horseshit, you're dead in the water without any way to survive in this disgusting, God-forsaken world. You have to take control.
