Viewers who self-assuredly think they would never make the same bad choices as the characters are the viewers who probably would. Viewers who actually question themselves over whether they would or not are the viewers who are more likely to not.

That's very reductive. I see characters make terrible decisions that I would never make all the time.

If the writing is good, it's supposed to make you empathize to the point that you know why they make those, though.

DA

I agree with all of this. And I've seen a lot of characters do stuff (that I doubt I would do) just because it makes the story run more smoothly, not even because it makes sense for them to. But I think what the other anon was trying to say was that someone who thinks they're inherently far too clever to make a particular mistake is more likely to get careless than someone who has a more empathetic approach to other people's foibles. They just overgeneralized.
