Now we are so far down that discussion that your first point of the 10% ghouls is also valid for my position. Your examples are cherry picked examples of saints so yeah it could be possible doing well in life in a fucked up society while being no asshole. But do you think your examples are the norm if you consider the population as a whole, since the original poster chose this as his metric to identify good partners? I think there is big correlation between somebody that is doing well in a fucked up society and assholes. Since the being happy part in most people I know comes from ignorance, missing empathy or missing education. And doing well financially comes from the same three plus exploitation or inheritance.
And for the rest:
Things like
doesn't sound fitting. Like there are people who build a community garden center because they like gardening and people who report from war zones. And I don't think it has something to do with them liking war so much.
So yeah maybe you should have clinical depression because the EU drowning thousands of refugees if that leads to action against this. Since more garden centers won't change the world.
I will keep ignoring the last two questions because I have the feeling they will just get us further away from the original post.
