I feel like I'm fighting a one-person crusade every time I respond politely to some jerk online. Last night I couldn't sleep because some rando on the internet said mean things. Why are humans like this? Why can't we just be nice? Sometimes I feel like we deserve to go extinct.

Because everyone wants to be popular. Most people don't have the tools to be popular through kindness so they simply act like the other orcs instead.
