I often wonder if this is just the logical extreme form of "fundamental attribution error". You know the sort of thing. Two people smash a glass on the floor.

I often wonder if this is just the logical extreme form of "fundamental attribution error". You know the sort of thing. Two people smash a glass on the floor. One of them is me. I am a decent person and I smashed the glass on the floor because I had a bad day. I am more likely to think the other person smashed the glass on the floor because they are a thoughtless person or have an anger management problem. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_attribution_error https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_attribution_error What if the logical conclusion is metaphysical solipsism: I did XYZ because I am a thinking person. They did XYZ because they are unthinking products of their environment and training?
