No, when you immerse yourself in finding joy in others suffering, you tend to view other people in general as below you to lift yourself up.
So if you’re constantly reveling in others misfortune, you tend to view them negatively in general, so you would view people as being of lower intelligence, worse decision making, etc, making them deserving of their misfortune.
If you just enjoy others’ suffering without attaching some sort of justification for why they deserve it then you’re just a psychopath.
Interesting, thanks for explaining. I guess some people get their neurochemical fix from pretty messed up places, and humans always want to feel justified.

Justifying your enjoyment in seeing others suffer is no better, you’re just deluding yourself into righteousness.
