Being so judgemental?
When we look at a human being, we look deeply enough to see that an individual is made of many elements: society, education, parents, ancestors, culture and so on. If we don't see all these elements, we don't fully see the person. If he has the tendency to behave in a negative manner, it doesn't mean that he likes to behave that way, but that he may be a victim of transmission. The negative seeds in him may have been transmitted to him by his society, his parents, his ancestors or his you realise this, it will be easier to have compassion for him. Then, you will be motivated less by the desire to judge than by the desire to do something to change the environment, the culture, so that the next generation will not be a victim of transmission.
When you look deeply at yourself and you notice one of your strengths, you know you have inherited it from your ancestors, your parents, your culture and so on. Likewise, you see the negative things in yourself, such as fear, anger and discrimination that may have been transmitted to you by your parents and ancestors. Your parents and ancestors were not able to transform themselves, that is why they have passed these things on to you. But you have an opportunity to transform so that you will not transmit these negative things to your children. This way of looking at yourself and others will give you understanding, compassion and a desire to act in order to transform.
