That one comment about the "Karen" video actually changed my mind on something

This is gonna sound dumb but I gotta share. There was that viral video from last March of a woman screaming at a kid's lemonade stand in Orlando. Everyone was piling on calling her a monster. But then this one person in the comments pointed out she had a hospital bracelet on and seemed confused. I actually went back and watched the full 12 minute version, not the 30 second clip. By the end you could see her kid was trying to calm her down. It made me think about how fast we judge people based on a tiny slice of their worst moment. Has anyone else ever changed their mind after seeing the longer version of a clip?

Right, that "wasn't the whole story" thing hits hard once you see the full clip.

Felix nailed it. The full clip changes everything.

Haha yeah that "wasn't the whole story" thing got me too. I'm a total sucker for the 5 second clip and then I run my mouth like I know everything. The amount of times I've typed out a whole angry comment and then deleted it after seeing more context is embarrassing honestly. My thumbs work faster than my brain I guess.
