Why do people keep on seeing the bad things that people have done? Why do we judge other people quickly sometimes?

Is it in human nature that's why it's happening or is it the upbringing of the individual that he or she has seen growing up?

What can be done to be better and not to judge other people just by basing on looks but looking deeper into his or her character?

If people did not know the difference between good and bad nothing would survive. It's good to know what is good and bad, and good for a person to judge without causing harm. Judging other people just by basing on looks is not really 'judging', it is following or imitating judgment but without the substance.

I would have to agree with this. Some people seem to have problems with other passing judgement forgetting that that's how we know whether what we are doing is acceptable or not. If you'd ever travel to a place with a different culture this would become more noticeable to you since we have already been socialized into our own society's norms. But then again, always going by society's standards don't always have good results. We would probably still have slavery, etc. There should be a balance between groupthink and individual conviction.

As for judging by looks, we do have a beauty bias, whatever a specific society consider beautiful.

Well, people tend to just spread does romurs because they are just jealous on what the person have and intend to judge then, sometimes people abuse their power that then other people just judge them. People are not going they were built that way..

Much as I dislike malicious rumors and small talk, it seem to be part and parcel of our social order. For the longest time we live in small groups and all the small talk is to spread information, to keep people in check, and as a way to find our position in the pecking order. Some even compare gossiping to the grooming behavior in other great apes.
