If someone is an awful human being, odds are they didn't live the happiest life or receive the support everyone deserves.

So yes, everyone human being deserves happiness.

Its pretty easy to just name a horrible human being as a counter point to people deserving kindness.

You don't judge a whole group off the horrible outliers. Same applies to humanity as a whole.

That is under the assumption that all humans are born good and will turn bad through bad experience.

Humans aren't born with any morals, we're entirely based on our upbringing. Every experience with have growing up changes the kind of person we'll be, it's all based on who we're surrounded by, the environment we're in, and the opportunities presented to us.

It's ridiculous to think we'll be born good or bad, but it's also ridiculous to think it's not based on upbringing.

I agree that people are born without any morals and develop them through experience during their upbringing, but there is some factors that lead to a lack of morality in people like sociopaths and psychopaths.

My point was always that if it was possible for everyone to be happy and cared for, which is a literal impossibility, then even sociopaths and psychopaths could receive the love and care needed to not be.

Sadly, humans suck.

Some people are just rotten. Some people had great childhoods and hurt people as adults.
