Are you saying that what makes you happy is the knowledge that everyone will be dead? Don't take this the wrong way, but that sounds extremely mentally unhealthy.

On the contrary, resignation is a perfectly healthy mental strategy to cope with things that are out of your control.

In what universe is being happy about the prospect of human extinction considered "perfectly healthy" ?

However healthy "rejection" is is greatly overshadowed by how unhealthy it is to consider all human life as toxic.
