some people want just, to sit back and watch the world burn.

Summary

This quote suggests that there are individuals who derive pleasure or satisfaction from witnessing chaos and destruction unfold in the world without actively participating in any productive or positive efforts to make a difference. These people tend to have a passive, apathetic attitude towards the challenges faced by society and may even find entertainment or enjoyment in the suffering of others. It highlights a disturbing aspect of human nature where some may find pleasure in the destruction and misfortune of others rather than striving for harmony and progress.
