Misanthropy
Misanthropy is the hatred or distrust of humans. When we are exposed to situations where humans have harmed animals we can start to believe that "People Suck". Our brain then goes to work to constantly seek evidence to prove that thought true. The problem is that in order to truly help animals, we have to also help people. And believing that "people suck" ultimately only hurts us and the animals we are so desperately trying to help. Check out this episode and share it with your friends!
