Be sure to analyze each and every tiger or black bear out in the wild next time, rather than assuming your life is in serious danger. See how long that lasts.

People generalize because generally generalizations work. Sometimes they don't, like with everything in life.

It's also very contextual and experience teaches you when generalization is a good fit or not.

Have you thought that your argument is self-contradictory, as you generalize a priori that generalizations don't work?

😉 just sayin'.

Merry Christmas!
