Ok, well respect to you for whatever happened there, sincerely.

But all of us have compromised at some time or place, I have in some places and faced consequences for not doing so in other places. If you haven't compromised yet, then wait until you have a family to take care of.

I prefer being honest about the times I did compromise and took OPs comment in that vein. A true psycho would see nothing wrong and also not be reflective about it.

I’ve also kept from having a family until I’m able to have one without directly* harming someone else to do it.

I’m reflecting. Mostly on what others have, materially, that I do not, but also what I have that they cannot.

Environmental externalities of the existence of my entire country/society notwithstanding - before this goes off into the weeds further.
