Interesting phrasing there. Orange guy "fell victim to" (was Innocent) while blue lady "was guilty".

It's true that we often excuse our own behavior by what we intended, and often blame others based on their behavior without knowing their intent. But that isn't a behavior you might expect from a psychologist determined to analyze a situation, showing a bunch of his own biases.
