There are times when one would like to hang the whole human

Summary

This quote reflects a momentary feeling of frustration and disillusionment with the human race. It captures the sensation of being overwhelmed by the flaws, shortcomings, and perceived absurdity of humanity's thoughts and actions. It implies a desire to give up on this "farce" and rid oneself of the disappointment and anger caused by the actions of others. Nonetheless, it should be acknowledged as a fleeting emotion, born out of passion and frustration rather than a practical solution to the flaws of humanity.
