Seriously…

Where exactly is the percentage in striving to be "the better person"
when the worst people seem to be the ones rewarded and respected ?

I can’t see myself ever actively harming another, regardless.

But I refuse to feign sadness when I see someone who does cause harm and who celebrates when others are harmed finally receiving some measure of karmic justice.

If that makes me a bad person, so be it.

Actions, intentions and thoughts are never the same things.

The actions are what count the most. They are at the apex. And the thoughts count the least.

I am saddened by the actions of some. I may understand some peoples intents, Yet there is no hope in changing the thoughts when presenting certain facts.

I see no black and white in most situations, because all three are not linear.

How do put a percentage one thing and not the others when none of the above is linear? 🤷🏻‍♂️

I would put one more thing in there yet it doesn't apply to this situation.

This has nothing to do with instincts. Which would be at the bottom between intents and actions, even if instincts are the most base.

All lead to actions in some way.
