If you mean we see the world (people/human nature) too realistically then yes I think some of us do. But that is probably an oversimplification. There are people who see life very realistically and try their best to counteract the bad... e.g. Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders and other health and human/animal rights workers. Then there are people who don't have a clue what life/human nature is about (and don't care) and they have problems with depression. If you do a search you'll find other threads here about the subject.
