One of the aspects I hope to clear up is not judging people by what they have said in private the most famous example: the President Trump Access Hollywood tape where he made an off-color joke about what women will allow a famous person to get away with that a non-famous person could not. Now it is gross to say that but in context it was a joke. I really do not think anyone’s character can be judged by private talk. There is no one alive that has not said something that if it was recorded and broadcasted to the rest of the world that could not be made to look like a bad person. One of the points of private talk is to vent is to say gross things and silly things. To get back to my example: would Donald Trump have made those comments if he knew he was being recorded? Of course not! There is a big difference between what people say privately versus what they say publicly it is immaturity to judge people by what they say privately. If we do that everyone is guilty because no one has not said something that could not potentially make them look like a bad person that person does not exist. As a society we are in huge trouble if we are judging people by what they have said privately. Maybe judge a person’s character not by what they say in private but by their actions.
