Fwiw, I think you've been downvoted because of the dissonance between being selflessly compassionate and being preoccupied with "cruel, hypocritical, hateful liars". Ultimately we're all the same, so if you really want to be selflessly compassionate, that should apply to those people you dislike, too.

Hmm to "ultimately we're all the same".

A quote I like says, paraphrasing, "as soon as you realise you and I are different people, then we will start to get along much better".

And related: "Know your enemy."
