Bad brings out the good in people?

Question

Do you believe that we need bad in order to see the good? For example, all of these hurricanes..it seems like lately all we see in the news is hate and evil. hurricanes Harvey and Irma are definitely unfortunate events, but it is so nice to see our torn apart country coming together. I live in Florida and we are supposed to get hit tonight, and it has been relieving to see people coming together to volunteer to help our state out. I feel like the bad has brought us together.

Answer

Not really. I think people do good things all the time, it's just not broadcasted all over the media. I think there may be a surge of good because there's a surge of need. But I do think sometimes it takes a bad experience to realize how much someone means to you.

Answer

I see people doing good things for people everyday. I think if you are only noticing good being done in times of distress, it would be beneficial to volunteer when there isn't an emergency. 
   
Stay safe.

Answer

First of all I hope you stay safe tonight.
To answer your question, I definitely think there's something about times of trouble that make some people more compassionate.

Answer

😂 people don't care about people. Everybody is just afraid to die and if they do die then they want to die in peace with the belief that since they were nice before they did then maybe they weren't as a big of an asshole as it seemed. 
This nation is torn apart and no amount of hurricanes and us pretending to care about each other will make us care about  each other. Until Florida and the rest of the world fixes the true problems then this nice nasty behavior will continue and we will all remain divided. I've also seen people pretending to care for each other. The only thing that bad brings out in people is their fear of death and dying in a BAD way.

Answer

I believe so. Without the bad, how would we ever know what good was?

Answer

In some cases, I feel that this is the case, though it shouldn't be. I think many people don't notice or choose to ignore things that don't directly impact them. These storms directly impact our country and our citizens-  they're going to cost us lives and billions of dollars. in any case, I'm glad to see people coming together to provide help, love, and support. Hopefully they can continue to do so AFTER the storms have passed.

Answer

I think the bad things thy happen make us value the good things that happen more. 
There's small "evils" we deal with daily, it's always a sense of relief to see humanity restored. 
My dad used to tell me if there wasn't anything bad in the world, people wouldn't appreciate anything good. We wouldn't know if it's good it would just be. (If that makes sense) 
So in a sense yes, we do need bad things to happen, if they didn't how would we distinguish praise worth behavior?

Answer

People do good things every day. The media just doesn't show that, they usually only do during big terrible events like these hurricanes. 
Bad news isn't as interesting to people as good news so 🤷🏻‍♀️ not to mention that there are plenty of people who take advantage of bad situations. 
(People who were stealing from brand name stores bc of the hurricane, but fuck it I would too 🤷🏻‍♀️, or the people who rose the prices of their water bottles to like $50 which is something I wouldn't do, that's more fucked up to me tbh.)

Answer

its just who people r. If they r kinda then they will almost always be kind,  visa versa.
Opportunity is what other people need to see who people r.  Idk if that makes sense, I think I worded it weirdly but whatever.

Answer

At least on the media, I think so. Last time I've seen people this good is 9/11. 
Media usually likes to report us at each other's throats, unless there's a disaster. 
Gotta make good tv.
