I self-describe as a rationalist and I don’t like humans that much at all. Don’t know how common this is.
I like humans well enough when -I can have a sensible interaction with them -Or, they are willing to accommodate my needs with needing an explanation for everything -Or, if I can manage their irrationality with a strategy that has a low cost to myself
Otherwise, I don’t like humans very much or at all. Maybe disappointed? I wouldn’t say hate (though the thought does come up).
I have been depressed. I’ve learned to deal with it, and I don’t feel I’m depressed now, though I am probably at risk for depression.
Mostly I try to do things for myself. And to put myself in a position where I won’t depend on any individual human for anything vital, and to have resources for as much self-reliance as possible.
