On philosophical level I believe in predetermination since literally everything is one chain reaction that could hypothetically be calculated, but I think it’s completely random and not constructed by any known higher force.

That said I don’t get too worked up over jerks and assholes because they’re all deeply miserable and insecure. The way people act reflects what they expect of the world around them. Hostile people live in hostile worlds and the same for judgmental and hateful people.
