fundamental attribution

A Poem by Jex
"

fundamental attribution-"the tendency for people to over-emphasize dispositional, or personality-based explanations for behaviors observed in others while under-emphasizing situational explanations."

"

We live in a world where showing compassion, emotion and kindness is considered to be a weakness. 

The world we live in has forgotten basic human decency and more importantly, how to show empathy.


 When looking at any situation now, people tend to only look at the facts... Or at least that is what's implied, but they also forget to look at the external factors as to how or why something may have occured. 


Today we are so quick to place blame on a person when something goes wrong, "guilty until proven innocent"

Right?

 Shame and belittle them for not being the. human perfection that society demands, after all...

that is what you are right?  You are the perfect human  that does not wrong

 therefore everyone else has to be as well right?


 The human world has forgotten the balance when deciding to place judgment on a person

 if you give the benefit of the doubt you’re considered weak and naïve, but if you only look at the facts, which are always twisted in some way because views matter,

You are doing right in being closed minded to nothing but the facts.

Because we love to see others stuffer,

We will scrutinize, analyze, and pick apart until nothing but skin and bone remains.

Much like a mad scientist on the verge of a breakthrough, slightly unethical but its for the greater good right?

And if you claim not to do so...  Bullshit!

Human nature dictates we much do so.


 Or maybe you decide to place judgement based on internal factors, Make a mistake and you are just a bad person

environmental factors be damned.

After all those only matter when it involves yourself 

Right?

 

Realistically accidents do happen and sometimes they are out of control of the person,

 but now we live in a world where we live in fear and screwing up is a death sentence.

Yet when it comes to oneself we are so quick to decide "it’s not me it’s because of the circumstance".

 A little hypocritical don’t you think?

So before you go for the kill, stop take a breath and look at the situation.


Look at all the facts, not just the ones that support your claims but your opponents claim as well. 

Don't be an ignorant a*****e

Educate yourself fully before passing judgement on any situation.
