My therapist tells me everyone is doing their best, even the housemate that leaves dirty dishes all over the house and never flushes the toilet. I grapple with this on the regular.
This is exactly it. We never know what each other is struggling with that limits their capacity to do things, we don't know what supports they need to succeed.
Some people are just lazy and shitty.
For example: Trump supporters are mentally lazy and shitty. We don't go around excusing them for their shitty beliefs just because "they tried hard."
We don't excuse anti-vaxxers because they "tried hard doing their own research."
I wish reality lived up to our egalitarian values but it just doesn't.
