What we’re about
A SOCIAL CLUB FOR MISANTHROPES
I know the term ‘sociable misanthrope’ is an oxymoron. Even though I have developed a severe dislike of humanity I’m not completely anti-social and I still would like to hang out with like minded people, for a while, maybe. Are misanthropes just disappointed idealists? There are people in this world I admire immensely, but somehow others intervene, maybe out of fear for self survival, and they keep digging hole after hole.
Can misanthropes have friends and keep them?
Apparently misanthropes are only a small percentage of the human population. But are they?
This is a coffee meet up for misanthropes where meaningful and honest discussion can take place.
“Out of the ashes of misanthropy benevolence rises again; we find many virtues where we had imagined all was vice, many acts of disinterested friendship where we had fancied all was calculation and fraud--and so gradually from the two extremes we pass to the proper medium; and, feeling that no human being is wholly good or wholly base, we learn that true knowledge of mankind which induces us to expect little and forgive much. The world cures alike the optimist and the misanthrope.”
Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton
