Please stop the self-righteousness. It does no good, and merely makes you sadder. If the world were truly so bad, "they" would already have imprisoned most of us and shut down this site.
There should be no complaining about human nature. Humans are just packs of impulses and desires, including the desire to do good, the moral impulse. Quite a damn few people act on it, and you shouldn't defame them.
You have no cause for depression, as these seeming catastrophes in fact only come to your mind by virtue of "the overreporting of the negative." People emphasize and publicize the bad things that happen, and so we hear of them the most. Every generation thinks they live through the Apocalypse, but none ever do or will.
Now sing from Monty Python... "Always look on the bright side of life..." I will award cookies and bonus points for crucifying oneself while singing.
Yeah, I'm really fucking tired.
