As someone who is a fan of pro wrestling it's kinda funny and a bit weird how quickly The Rock allowed his mask to slip.
for years and years he was seen as a nice guy, giving people homes and trucks and what have you, even in the wrestling biz he was considered a nice guy. then the failures started happening and his demeanor and personality started to change or maybe his true nature started coming to light.
Ends up he's not a good person. Ends up he's more like Hulk Hogan.
Wait, a person looking for fame and fortune via glorifying themselves turned out to be a bad person?!
... Holy shit celebrity culture has cooked peoples' brains... cannot even finish my mock surprise.
John Cena seems to be a genuinely good dude. And he's a good actor and funny
I do think this kind of tendency is fairly common. Most humans find it easier to be kind and giving when everything is going well for them. And conversely most humans, when their life starts going to shit, really find it difficult to care about other people's problems.
Of course there are examples of people who are going through the worst time ever and still manage to muster up empathy and patience for others. I think people like that are remarkable because they are not the usual.
(Not to defend Dwayne Johnson, I have no feelings at all about him or knowledge about what he has and has not done. Just a side note thought)
