So, like, instead of making assumptions about someone's internal life, look at the material, economic, social situations they're in and ask of those situations are dictating or constraining their behavior?
Not really. If you see a stranger kicking a vending machine, there's a (well-documented!) bias to think "that much be a violent and angry person" instead of "that person is having such a bad day they're kicking vending machines now."
You could go dig all the way into material and social situations that caused a person to yada yada yada, but that's way deeper in.
Cool, thank you for the explanation.
