...ummm...ultimately we are all lonely creatures who are looking for a reason why we're alive, yet we can never be certain about any of those reasons. Ultimately we are never sure if God wants us here, or if we are an accidental collection of molecules, or if there is even anything such as a self or other.
That's a lot of fear and uncertainty built right into our existence that can never be alleviated.
Everyone carries these fears.
Furthermore, everyone has suffered injustice, rejection, torment, mockery, ridicule, anger, and, as always, loneliness.
Thus, it can sometimes be expected that people are assholes on occasion. They're just trying to create certainty where none can ever truly be found. Sometimes that transient certainty comes at the expense of your happiness.
