The point of view of a text effects the work's overall tone, mood, and credibility. In the novel Into the Wild, the author includes a segment in which the protagonist shares his own thoughts through a 3rd person perspective. What are thoughts about Alex/Chris? What inferences can be made about his character?

Judging Others
Many people have a tendency to examine the lives of others and make harsh judgements for individuals' choices and decisions in life. Unsurprisingly, we also have a tendency to condone the actions, decisions, or desires of others. However, are we experts to judge the actions, motives, or desires of another? Do we have a right to scrutinize or criticize the life of another. Please thoroughly explain your reasoning with support.
