Does Nagito really have no remorse when it comes to deaths and killings?

For me, it seems like he genuinely gets saddened by each death and loss but immediately tries to cope with it and cheer everyone up with his messed-up belief in Hope and Despair. Does that really mean he doesn't care about his classmates?

I mean, it would make sense considering his entire life has been filled with losses and deaths being followed by good luck and riches, so I wouldn't be surprised if he just didn't know how to cope with the immense sadness he feels every time so he just uses the idea of Hope as a coping mechanism and means to cheer everyone up. It would explain why he gets confused when no one else agrees with him because death and loss are almost like second-nature to him due to his luck cycle and he would think that that's obvious or normal to everyone else.

And I wouldn't be surprised if deep down he genuinely hates murder and deaths but suppresses his emotions due to his self-loathing and strong beliefs that "It's okay, this is for hope after all. I have to do it, for everyone's hope."

I'm not entirely sure myself. And by the way, I am not trying to defend his actions in any way, just analyzing his character
