Do you think society chooses to believe the best about a high status person and the worst about a low status person?

[Anonymous]

In terms of, when there is a confusion about something, they will look at things this way.

Yesss 1000000% I was talking about this with a friend the other day because thus guy at work is trying to leave to find a new job because he thinks he's too good to be working in a warehouse when the money and hours are great.

I know so many people who work fancy office jobs which are mainly pointless and over paid who are so depressed. They are on a ton of meds because they have anxiety or depression and lack a lot of things such as daily exercise and just a healthy lifestyle.

I work a manual job were I'm constantly on my feet yes it's not prefect either far from it but it keeps my brain working and I have so many amazing co workers who i can just be real with and are like family to me because we don't put on this fancy pants formal act on like people do who work in white collar jobs and we stick together.

I think anyone who cares about status and career are extremely brainwashed and need to go back and look at the world we live in.

What is the point yes I get if that's what you want go for it but don't start believing you are above people and that's all that's matters.

You should work to live not the other way around because most companies wouldn't care if you died tomorrow

No it’s not status is resume—> profits

Actually a bunch prefer to just see a college degree from the teacher’s pets, so that they will have great minds to help fuel/ finance their product.

Any that are subpar are used to do the grunt work of manufacturing and selling the product.

higher-end workers treated really just with more “reason ability” not actually LIKABILITY or respect- just “dealing with.”

lower-end workers treated unfairly but they could care less.

low makes and sells

high finesses the civilians and all are minions for the corporations who don’t give a damn and wish to feed their grandsons Apple iPhone sweet tooth

”organize” / restock their smart fridge with 30 cases of soda and 30 cases of colorful sparkly water

while the minions never live their best lives and the poor struggle never knowing what the word life even means.

No one gives a fxck about status.

Thats PURELY for models and actors.

Oh and politicians because they’re bloody models and actors too. All barks and cat walks- no bites into issues and no stalking the issues of the world and society anyways.

[dynamicyandere]

It definitely can, but only if they are high status or low status in YOUR eyes.


It’s backed up by psychology. We have this tendency to associate good traits with other good traits. Or, bad traits with other bad traits. Which in turn, intensifies our positive or negative bias.


verywellmind. com explains this Halo Effect like so:


The halo effect is a type of cognitive bias in which our overall impression of a person influences how we feel and think about their character. Essentially, your overall impression of a person ("He is nice!") impacts your evaluations of that person's specific traits ("He is also smart!").

Does "society" choose to believe the best about Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Brett M. Kavanaugh, Tucker Carlson, George W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, Ron DeSantis, Greg Abbott, Kevin McCarthy, etc?

I find corruption happens most among the very poor and the very rich, the middle class and upper middle class usually have decent personalities. I decided if I become rich I will blacklist and ghost all who mistreated me when I was poor. First on my list is my cousin who lives less than 20 minutes away. Would love to laugh at her if she loses her job since she treats me like dog trash even though I’m a nice person who respects people.

People decide how much respect to give you by looking at your dress and your style. Here in Pakistan there are some people that if you are wearing shalwar kameez and dupatta then no one treat you well but if you are wearing expensive shirts and jeans then everyone bow down to meet you.

[Boomchakalaca]

Yes, you dress what you project out in the world.

[The_Shadow_Dweller]

The brightest is thought about the bright and the darkest is thought about the dark. Typical mentality of the society to take things to extreme to keep it simple.

[Adam1978]

Well there is some truth to people at the bottom there is usually something wrong with them. But the people on the top are usually bad people. So the good people are usually somewhere in the middle.

[Unit1]

As a tendency I will say yes. Who wants to dig deeper into one's backstory when they can just take a superficial look and judge a book by its cover?

[AngryCarl2]

I don't know what society believes. I judge everyone by their actions.

Matthew 5:45 "for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust."

[TheSpaceGnome]

Often enough that it's more common than not.

[es20490446e]

Yes, because they are in that status for a reason.

[AnusNdaPainus]

My Pa used to say money is the root of all evil and corruption is the soil

[Anonymous]

Opposite honestly

[SoJust]

Yes , actually, i think soceity classifies it

[noohair]

Status in what way? Money? Education?

[Greenbean27]

People are individuals. It depends on the person.

[barisonsoyks]

Most of the time.

[Asker]

Why though? I mean wouldn't the high status person have much more incentive to lie about what happened thinking they can get away with it?

[TalynMere]

Yes, but you're talking about "most people" and most people just don't think at all. Literally, if it takes any amount of extra thought, at least 50% of people just don't care.

[Anonymous]

Yeah--because generally that makes sense.

[TenderFantasy]

Of course!

[Anonymous]

yup. people do it and deny it

[In_Trance]

Stop with this...

[Anonymous]

Yeah it seems so
