Hmm, I don't think kindness in general is the problem, the issue is that Kaneki was kind literally to a fault. He was conditioned from a young age to believe "kind people only need to be kind to be happy" and "it's better to be hurt than to hurt others". Kaneki's brand of kindess was extreme and unhealthy. Good things came of it too, he did make several close friends and protected them because of his kindness. Ultimately, Kaneki's harmatia is his martyr complex, of which extreme kindess is just a symptom of. He wants to be loved and "die in style" and previously, his kindness was partly due to that want. If Shuu and Urie are anything to go by, Kaneki still wants to help the people in his life, he just went from one extreme to another.
