Judgemental

 Currently most all people are highly and hugely judgemental. May be, such as attitude is a by-product of the multiple media trials. May be, that is a way to escape the banality and boredom of the generally insignificant lives of most. When you 'high'- mouth someone, the implied grandeur of your posture makes you appear ethical, I suppose, which hides all the ugly and silly minutiae of your own meaningless lives, right?

Or is it due to the base, almost inborn, habit of carping that most all have. When you carp, you cover up your  innate defects by involving others in your tirade, mostly one-sided, right?

Personally I strongly believe that being thus 'judge' is 'mental'! What exactly do you know of the complex context or the savage situation she/he is in for you to let loose your slippery tongue that exposes your lack of brain power, of empathy, and of ethics?!?

 If you cannot put yourself in her/his shoes, at least do not let loose your tactless tongue which actually openly shows up your (lack  of) character! It might be silly timepass for you. It can get someone solidly in harm's way.

Personally, I am of the opinion that if  one can help others even in a small way, better to try it. If you cannot manage it, just keep quiet! If you cannot help a person, at least do not harm her/him! The hands-off is the best policy coz when you point a finger at others, four of your own fingers point at you yourself!
