    How many of you reflexively made assumptions about which one was the taxi driver? I did, and didn’t even realize it until I saw this in my feed a second time. Pretty messed up.

      Yes? Nothing is wrong having a reflex notion, that’s normal. What’s wrong is if you let that notion dicate how you treat them. Crackhead Kennedy gets more respect then the taxi driver that works 16 hrs a day. One is not loke the other.

      I did. Because guy on the left (from camera pov) looks very excited like he’s a regular and guy on the right looks a bit apprehensive and has this “serious” face, looks like being tired after a long day of work.

        Different perspective: Man on the in blue/black is having fun on his first ever day in a theme park, man in pink is already used to the ride and is just routinely relaxing in theme parks after work because he got an annual pass one time.

      Fucking same. “Hurr the browner one must be the taxi driver durr.” Gross. What a weird thing for my brain to think! Anyway, I guess that just happens sometimes with brains.
