OK, general misanthropy based on disappointment w/ the average of humanity - perhaps counterproductive and possibly leading to a complete lack of purpose, but I'll grant you that it's logical
Just in case you've fully convoluted the point against you were railing: the appeal was to individuals to leave the world better than they found it,
not to condone state interference in our activities. If you don't believe in such actions, OK, but it's unfair to classify everyone who tries to put more into life than they're extracting from it as merely chumps / suckers. And it's flat-out retarded to say that folks trying to improve the world
must be supportive of the state limiting freedom; hence the appeal to
individuals to not fuck it all up.
