Humans as a rule have a natural tendency to comment and criticise on every topic, whether it is beyond their domain of expertise, interest or anything. We comment on stuff which we often know is dumb, that is why we would not venture saying most of them aloud. How do you defend/justify commenting on the accent, dressing sense or what not of a guy who is unknown to you, not interacting with you and thus not affecting you adversely in any way! What gain do we get out of it, nothing beyond a sense of satisfaction. True not all do it regularly but it is a very common tendency and we all do it to some extent. Ya but lets look on the other side. Look towards an alternate way - the power of indifference, if I may call it. Indifference to matters that we know not enough about and which in no ways affect us. The matter which we should really not care about. We do have a responsibility in principal to not turn a blind eye to anything wrong. But with a practical perception there are many things which we would do better leave as they are, in the hands of equally able people who aren't actually helped by our meddling.
