I don't hate society at all. I think some of the things that we, a society as a whole, can believe in are a bit skewed, but I don't really understand how people can hate "soceity", when it's really just an abstract idea.

That's what I'm confused about. If all of society is skewed, there where do these ideals come from?

It's really hard for me to explain what I'm thinking so I probably sound a bit numb.

But sometimes ideals and morals can come from a long time ago. Perhaps these ideals make sense and were fine when they were first created, but over generations the meanings were lost, and our society may change but the morals may be left behind, thus they do not match and are skewed.

So when you're happy (Hurray!), or sad (Aw!),
Or frightened (Eeek!), or mad (Rats!)
An interjection starts a sentence right.

We talked about this shit a lot in sociology. A lot of people don't agree with the view that people are born inherently bad, by societal standards or any other. I, however, do.
