It is disrespectful when you speak ill of it.

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.

-- William Butler Yeats
When you are so blunt about how you hate it and how the world is ending you don't ever seem to take the time to think that you are treading on our dreams. Eversince I was a little child I wanted to be a pilot. I went to college and majored in aviation to be a pilot. I am being hired tomorrow as a CFI where I plan to continue until I obtain my main goals. I would not had made it this far were it not for dreams. If you don't like it. Don't do it. Don't come to the forum, don't get in a plane, don't persue it any further. Do something you do like. This is what we like and we will defend it. You don't chose to be an aviator. It sounds like you chose.
