How come there are so many comics out there about friendly, helpful and cheerful characters becoming psychotic murderhobos because people = shit (pic related), but so very few about psychotic murderhobos becoming friendly, helpful and cheerful, because people, while flawed, aren't all shit?

Do you have some other story in your mind beside the pic related?
That's a poor example fampie.

Beautiful Darkness is more about a reversal of fairy-tale ideals and the decay of society WITHOUT altruism. The story never implies people are inherently bad, just what happens when childish/simple characters are thrust into a world far too complex for them.
was the guy in the hut a pedophile who killed the little girl and that was the reason mc was so obsessed with him?

No, there is zero evidence that he had anything to do with the girl's death.

>the one girl who was buried alive
>no one tried to save her
>just dumped her body out without a care
Holy shit I'm mad after all that time.

Honestly I think that's just Kerascoët.

I thought he was maybe the dad or something but honestly I don't know what fucking anything in this comic meant. Only thing that seemed for 'sure' was that I don't think anyone was actually evil, they just didn't know what they were doing, or understood consequences or something.
There's also no reason to believe the little girl was killed by someone either.

I like the theory that she ate poisonous mushrooms.
And, I still can't figure out how they killed Jane.

Some people speculated she fell out of a tree and hit her head, or fell on her colored pencils. Who knows.
I feel like even if this comic was explained by who made it, either absolutely nothing about it would be even remotely straight forward or literal(muh symbolism) or the author would be like "i dunno i just drew a thing."

Its the kind of thing that's open up to any interpretation. Like, are the kids pixies that happened to live in a dead girl, are they her fantasies and personality given life by the time of her death?
The author made them act like toddlers for a reason OP

I thing I like about it so much is how incredibly stupid it makes me feel. Like on one hand, fuck yeah interpreting things is fun but this just gives you so little it actually makes me mad.
