Bro is taking a minute to reflect on how it’s still worth it to be a good person even when things seem to keep getting worse all the time

Oh I thought he was reflecting on all the cholesterol he’s about to consume!

A version of "nice guys never win".

Good hearted people aren't necessarily nice. In fact, they're often mean to oppressors.

yep. good hearted doesn't mean nazi coddler, in fact, it often indicates a reduced amount of tolerance for the people who make intolerance their entire personality.

I don't understand it either. I'm stupid, so you're likely to be as well, sorry.

I think the second part means "damn! Do we ever win?!" expressing frustration. Not sure with that grammar, though. At first I took it as "damn do we ever win" meaning that "we always win" or "we win big".
