I can't read the original text, so I'm mostly replying to your edit.
Doing something nice isn't an asshole move
Doing nothing isn't an asshole move
It's not a lose-lose scenario
You're not an asshole
This planet is better with you on it
Okay now that I've got the obvious stuff out of the way, DON'T LISTEN TO THE HATERS! The vast amount of replies were positive and encouraging. You obviously edited your post, which is a bit of an overreaction, but I get it. I'm sensitive too and I genuinely think it's a good thing (mostly when I see that quality in others ๐คทโโ๏ธ). Empathetic people like you literally improve the world, for everyone. But ignore the bitter people who do the opposite and want everyone else to be miserable too. Even if you had no impact, you should do good things because they are true and pure and worth it, no matter how the recipient responds and no matter how other people view it. They'll also make you feel good! Just keep being you...

Bruh you're overthinking. Get out of your head and go touch some grass. Idk what's going on because of the edit, but you need to talk to a professional
