Do you think people in general secretly wish for others to fail, or at least not succeed?



Of course! Humans are fucking greedy! People have different motives for seeking failure in others, but you're kidding yourself if you think everyone has the best intentions in their actions, words, and gestures.

To note: this gesture is seemingly altruistic, however I benefit from these interactions in ways that may not be immediately obvious.
