Would you agree with this statement?

Yes, I would agree.
I don't take "many" to connote majority, though.

And the proportion of people who fulfill that above description definitely varies a great deal by environment.

Certain occupations draw in those types, and encourage and breed those characteristics, because those with them excel. And it becomes that much more of a self perpetuating spiral as it becomes the norm, just the way it's done "here" or in that "world", so anyone behaving otherwise is the one deviating.

And obviously, physical locations tend to have a particular field of occupation that most people there are involved in. So then that physical area becomes a slower part of that same spiral.

I admit that I can certainly bring a stereotypical "type" to mind when I read that description. And it comes from both media and personal experience. This typing got solidified when I moved to a place where I wound up personally interacting on a daily basis with people who fit that description and help to propagate that stereotype.
And media literacy has always been something important to me, so I like to think I recognize before or when that stuff is about to start to build undue connotations.


There are people and communities and social environments that eschew and see through those traits as well, though. Most of those "egotistical, greedy, selfish, ignorant, unwilling to accept the truth, indulgent, disrespectful destructive and manipulative" people tend to naturally gravitate away from these other environments in favour of the ones that favour their traits, just because they can get more in the other places. And I think a lot of those people used to those other traits find kinder, generous, thoughtful people weird, confusing and unsettling. Or they just don't like them because they're "hippies" or something like that.
And then there are the one that stick around the nicer-types specifically to irritate people. Those are the people who are really f---ed up.
