Though it’s schadenfrude to see them be corrected, its a little sad because they believed in something true for 99% of the normal people they came across but 1% evil proved them wrong.

I will admit to being an SJW in college. Since graduating and leaving New England, I've realized Christianity's whole downer take on humans as sinners is probably the best way to explain human behavior. We've lived in a nice white country for so long, but it's not going to be that way much longer. The fucking spics alone should be enough to redpill anyone. Nevermind the niggers. My long-term goal now is to eventually retire someplace too cold to attract either group.

Its not true though and you appear to be as naive as they were.
Human beings are inherently evil and selfish and when given an option of doing a morally righteous thing or doing something that benefits themselves and only themselves, will overwhelmingly choose the latter.
The only thing stopping the majority of humans from being evil is fear of the repercussions.
There are no repercussions for murdering "infidels" in ISIS controlled territory, therefore there is no fear of repercussions and the evil in human nature is free to rear its ugly head.
