Maybe I can't change anything, but just accepting all behavior, good and bad*, as "people: they do stuff" doesn't absolve the bad (you might use the term "different").
So you think I'm setting myself up for disappointment if I think that way, but I'm not going to acquiesce to the (supposed) immutability of man's nature just so I can be a little more happy. I'm neither a Buddhist nor an Objectivist.
*I'm being subjective here, I'm not some moral absolutist like you seem to think I am; but I'm not going to avoid calling something out if I'm not happy about it.
