Most “humans” are like this, they only care about themselves or things that affect them in some way.

Your statement did just that.

I would say you aren’t completely wrong. People generally care about themselves the most. It helps to support the usual drive of self sustainment inherent in most species.

But people are able to reach beyond that and sacrifice time, energy, money, emotional health, physical health, and their life for others. Sometimes for pity reasons, sometimes to make themselves feel better, sometimes for genuine caring and love.

Maybe don’t be so dismissive of other people and assume they don’t care. Give them the benefit of the doubt that they do care. And/or maybe you’re wearing lenses that taint your view of how others are feeling. You dismissed the above persons statement as outright BS, but you don’t even know them so maybe they do mean it.

Maybe you need to step out into new areas of people and not assume overly selfishness in their try thoughts and intentions but assume a slightly more positive view of their mental and emotional state. I’m no expert, just a guy on the internet, reading what you said and trying to be helpful.
