@human_apparently: Nine people died in a plane crash. And somehow, the internet decided the 20-year-old female co-pilot, who wasn’t even the captain, was to blame. The cause of the crash? Still under investigation. There’s a psychology concept called defensive attribution. When something terrifying happens, blaming someone can feel easier than accepting that tragedy isn’t always within our control. And when that someone is a young woman in a male-dominated profession, stereotypes can make her an especially convenient target. Blaming someone might make us feel safer. It doesn’t make us right. #Learjet60 #RIP #PalmBeach #NathaliaGadelha #PlaneCrash
