This is exactly why we should never treat each other with contempt, scorn and punishment. People make wrong decisions all the time, some not so bad, some much worse. But at the end of the day, we all have the same capacity to make the wrong decisions. The more space we create for others (and ourselves) to learn from them and grow, the more we improve the world.

This seems a bit Pollyanna-ish, unfortunately.

I agree with you, but it only applies to people acting in good faith. Some people are genuinely motivated by anti-social impulses or downright malevolence. Some people are just unreasonable.

Yeah, some people intentionally or apathetically make the wrong decisions
