Why do people look down on others?
Because it is the basic human behavior. Putting down weak people somehow gives people a false sense of superiority and helps them re-establish their self esteem.Look, we meet different kinds of people in our lifetime. But there are some people who easily convince us to bend their way. They influence our thoughts the most. They dominate the friendship. Similarly you have other friends, where you have dominance over them.So, whenever you get hit hard on your self esteem and are insulted (mostly by a dominant person; dominant being referred as “stronger personality” in the context of the question), you tend to insult someone “weaker” than you. All this in the quest of restoring your self esteem. And this cycle continues. It does help you in regaining some confidence.I'm in no way advocating that it's okay to put down weak people. I'm stating that stronger ( emotionally, mentally or physically, doesn't matter) people are less vulnerable to being put down.For example : An average student is very less likely to challenge an intelligent student for a quiz or debate, but is never behind in humiliating the weakest student of the class. The weakest student may be a good dancer and boasts in front of his/her bad dancing friends.I think that's the way it goes. It's just a cycle of people compensating for their loss of self esteem by snatching at others’ self esteem.
Why are NICE people considered WEAK?
In my opinion, it's because our society has become so 'self'-oriented. People are supposed to go after what they want however they have to in order to get it. My husband and I discuss this a lot...how it's such a 'me first' society. People who are not that way are considered weak because they aren't aggressive like that. My philosophy is from the Bible, "Be as wise as a serpent, but harmless as a dove." I agree with the person who said niceness is a strength, not a weakness.
Why do most of the people consider me as dumb and weak and try to put me down without even knowing me? What can I do to get out of this situation?
The complaint that others assume you to be a moron tells that you expect them to take interest in you and judge you. How can they do that if you are feigning no interest in them ? Two intelligent persons cannot sit side by side or in front of each other, without some way iteractiong, at least through eye contact or body language. If you send out the signal that you would like to be left alone, they might assume you are not a good fighter. Watch growing up calves and see how thet react to each other’s presence. One will not easily go away, unless totally ignored by the other.
Why do people put each other down?
It is a psychological trick (and a foolish one) to seek a feeling of superiority by making others inferior. By putting others down a weak-minded person feels false strength, because if others are weaker - or affected to make weaker - then relatively, one is stronger. Bullying in children is a clear example. Adults also bully, but more cunningly. They have hunger for proving they are worthy and stronger than others.I believe this psychological weakness (in toxic people) is derived from animalistic ego, as animals behaviour (for example Chimpanzees) is based on hierarchy of authority. It is also monitored in other apes behaviour, where if an individual ape must look down before the alpha dominating boss - or otherwise suffer a blow (as a reminder of who is stronger and who is inferior).People who lack self confidence feel a horrifying gap in their psychology. To fill the gap, one has to work hard on self-development and maturity, developing wisdom, cooperation, openness, and enjoyable relationships with others. This requires efforts and determination of continual self improvement as a dignified human being.But that way of self-respect is too much for animalistic layer of the mind, which fills the gap by seeking weaker person to inflict psychological harm and hurt - foolishly thinking that this is a proof that one is “strong”. It is a path of psychopaths.Then - whenever a truly strong, mature and wise person appears in the situation, then the foolish psychopath is reduced to ruin, because a truly strong person is unaffected by small spirit of behaviour.If someone produces sufferings to others, then - according to Nichiren Buddhism - this has been recorded in one’s record of subconsciousness (karma) - and one will without doubt face the consequences.
Why do people say Tyson had a weak chin?
Getting KO'ed is definitely the main way people decide on who has a weak chin, but many people also factor in weak will as you mentioned. You also mentioned the Razor Ruddock fight. This is a good example of this because Tyson may not have gone down in that fight, but a lot of the time he stopped throwing punches after getting hit. That could be interpreted by some as a weak chin, but I personally wouldn't.
Why are introverted people looked down upon?
Too many people are impressed by Alfa males, just because they have a loud voice, and these people think that a fast, loud answer is correct, since it was given by Alpha males (and /or whatever the female version of this is) and fear that the Alpha will mock, belittle, embarrass or hurt anyone that disagrees. I believe that an introvert (as myself) is ignored even if they have an obviously better plan, answer or whatever, and often, the Alpha will hear that introvert and "steal their thunder". So, it is really the extrovert who is weak or insecure.

Why do people take kindness for weakness?
very good question people who do take kindness for weakness have a lot to learn about karma.....they will continue to worm their way through life never knowing the benefits of altruism take jail/prison for example.......kindness in this environment can make you instant prey.....however, if you can pull it off, to treat others with wise generosity, then you have achieved a state of peace those other individuals will never know... bottom line...doesnt matter why they do it...its their problem, and your benefit
Why do people think that cancers and pisces are weak?
Well this is mainly pisces and cancers. Why do people feel the need to put those two signs down so much? Does anyone else think that they're just as good as the rest of the signs? What makes a person weak? What makes them weak? Is it because they have emotions? Is it because they have the gift of compassion? Is it because they don't feel the need to be aggressive? Tell me what it is. I've noticed that the more (stereotypically) feminine the traits are of a sign, the weaker they are potrayed! Virgos are represented by the woman itself but they definitely don't have the most (stereotypical) feminine traits! Cancers and pisces do! Scorpio is a feminine and water sign too so what's the big difference here hmm? Scorpios have very (stereotypical) masculine qualities that's what! Same with capricorns and taurus! Virgos fall somewhere in between! People would say that it's because scorpio is a fixed sign! Well cancer is a cardinal sign! The cardinal signs represents their element at its purest! The cardinal signs initiate things! They possess leadership qualities! Well lemme list two stereotypical cancer traits that is completely the opposite of the cardinal signs qualities! Cancers are known to be passive and clingy! Are they born leaders or passive and clingy? See how stupid that **** is? Pisces is a mutable sign! They're very flexible and interesting!
