It's not hard to watch another person fail and dissect why their failure is their fault.
It's not hard to observe another's weakness and decide they are weak.
It's not hard to assume you would do better when you don't see yourself likely to have to prove that.
It's not hard to let your behind-the-scenes words tear down another's being based on shallow evidence.
It's not hard to hate a person who does and says hateful things.
