i agree with you here Gilly

1). Do-Gooders are often naïve and do no "good" at all.
2). We used to be just as naïve and now we want to ridicule those "beneath" us just to prove we know more than they do.

Do-gooders are irritating because ...As a rule their hearts are in the right place ...but they're often appallingly naïve and impractical.
If this is pointed out to them they then become aggressively moralistic and accuse their critics of not caring.
They can be a judgemental lot.

Re: Why are do gooders so irritating ?
Do-gooders mean well but they have tunnel vision. They don't have a wide perspective and certainly never think of the consequences of their actions. I agree with what the poster said, if you are going to do good, keep it quiet - there is no need to broadcast and shine your light where it doesn't need shining.
