So I wanted to start an interesting discussion possibly a debate if we get some conflicting views, about what makes someone a jerk or an asshole versus someone who perhaps made a mistake or was reacting in a brash aggressive manner but also has good selfless deeds as well.
Is that person who cuts you or your parents on the road really deserving of a verbal cuss-out, or perhaps was the other person's life circumstances justified in them feeling hurried and thus them driving a bit aggressively which irked you the wrong way?
Are society's legal framework by de facto making individuals who work for a company an asshole person because corporate policy makes employees adopt certain behaviors that aren't always the right thing to do?
If you're a friend that's caught in the middle of an argument between two other friends, and you are asked to take a side, are you de facto an asshole to one person and not the other or vice-versa, or both if you fail to get involved and back up the concept of having a "friend's back"?
When you start fighting with others over "what's or that's mine!" type of scenarios in life, are you a de acto asshole or are you justifed? Lots of people who are called assholes use the defense they were justified in talking back or using force against someone else if, from a subjective point of view, they felt it was warranted.
