I feel like it's a more clear example of Harry Potter/MCU derangement syndrome, wherein every narrative needs to have a "good" side and a "bad" side in order for people to be able to engage with it. So most of the discourse around every single new event revolves around people arguing who was the "good" side and who deserves praise or scorn.

Correct. I am not here to say one side did good and the other bad. I am just showcasing this Fundamental Attribution Error at work.

it sounds like you are the textbook case of this.

Even defends of Will admit he acted like a fucking jackass. That is why the whole narrative exists to say he was going through a lot. If he acted like someone who was not a fucking jackass, there would be 0 need to find environmental factors to explain the situation.

As to Chris Rock, there is a few things we know. He is a comedian. He is paid to roast these people. If you want to grill him and paint him as evil, then go ahead. But doing that while saying Will did not act like a jackass puts you clearly into the target of my op.

There's more ways to look at it than just this but ok

"I can't disprove what you said but I will pretend like I can and just say ok."

Not ok.

What Is the Fundamental Attribution Error? The fundamental attribution error refers to an individual's tendency to attribute another's actions to their character or personality, while attributing their behavior to external situatonal factors outside of their control

This goes beyond just ourselves. If it is someone we like, we tend to also apply this fundamental error.

example:

1.We like Will Smith. He clearly acted like a fucking idiotic jackass.
BUT! It is not his fault. The poor man is going through soooo much. We need to understand him and feel sorry for his situation.

We have attributed the excuse to factors outside of his control like we do for ourselves when we do stupid shit.

2.We don't like Chris Rock. How dare he. He should have known better. How can he be so insensitive?
Interesting isn't it that we have NO IDEA what is going on in Chris' life, yet everything that he has done is now instantly because of his own decisions. Why did he make the joke? What environmental factors lead to this? Does he have bad things going on in his life? Did he actually rehearse the joke or in a moment of low sleep it just popped into this head? etc

But if you don't like him, you don't care. You attribute it to his character flaws

cool what printer you use?

Stewart seems like he really wants to use his pull to make the world better.

So what was up with these topics getting closed?

If you meant my topic I closed it because I saw it was a duplicate topic and bumped the other.

tl;dr, Florida cops sent with warrants for arrest for people who had the car parked at their home and clear visible records of payment.

They still went to jail and got a felony on their record.

Avoid Hertz

I'm referring to the free 2 day benefit. Everything is sent from your local warehouse, whether it's free shipping or free Prime shipping.

I don't doubt their overall operation has increased in costs.

400ish million is nothing to them. The price increase will net them far beyond that; and they were gonna make new programming either way to not bleed revenue to Netflix.
