Happiness for everyone is a full-out radical liberal idea which is full of these suspiciously sketchy things called the "human good" or "progressive human spirit" that essentially states that human progress is not a zero-sum game and that everyone can be happy together. I agree that that does exist but it doesn't apply to everyone out there and so the whole thing instantly falls apart. (This is not a counter-argument to normal liberalism which does accept that there are people out there who do not agree, but argues that there are enough opposing forces to realists that humanity can still progress overall.)

Some people just aren't happy with seeing other people being happy, or want to get ahead of others at their expense. It's that simple.
