Is it just me, or does this come off as incredibly cynical? We’re petty, emotional and vindictive We can’t think properly We don’t do due diligence or reason

Is it just me, or does this come off as incredibly cynical? We’re petty, emotional and vindictive We can’t think properly We don’t do due diligence or reasonable research about anything We’re poorly educated We lack empathy, and have a deep distrust of companies We universally dehumanise businesses We don’t read, and we’re not interested in starting now I mean, I do agree with the overall point, but I like to think humanity is better than this (even if not by much).

I believe humanity is; however, we are discussing the subset of humanity that leaves comments on packages, which is a skewed distribution. People who tend to be more civil in general might have tried numerous other means of solving their problem or getting support before leaving a "verdict" in public; in my experience this causes the sample population of comments to be people who fall into these categories, as they are, at best, "at their worst" (stressed, angry, or confused).
