While schadenfreude is largely enjoyed, I believe it's probably nurture as much as nature and happens the world over, including in the USA (leopards ate my face glee posting). And while a brief indulgence may be natural and understandable, swimming in those waters and refusing to find empathy, understanding with or without empathy is just as unhealthy for the indulgent who risk drowning in a sea of hate and seethe, as it is for those on the receiving end of karma.

I'm not scolding you so much as musing online.
