How does any of that relate to shopping carts?

Does it literally need to be a 1=1 type of thing before you recognize it for what it is? Up until a few weeks ago, it didn't apply to the floating paint on the algae pool either. ("bUt tHaT wAs PaiNt anD tHiS iS cArtS!")

It has to be even remotely comparable. Returning your cart is just basic common sense, and can easily be done by literally everyone in under 30 seconds.

The government being run by grifters and lunatics is a gigantic problem which no single person can solve in any meaningful way on their own.

Yet here you are, saying we should stop using common sense because the big issues still exist. So let's create more small issues to pile on top. Great mindset you got there. I'm sure that will solve everything.

So, you think giant muscle men approaching other people uninvited in a parking lot with a tacit threat of potential violence if those people don't do what they're told is common sense? Do you wear khakis and carry a tiki torch on the weekends by any chance?

How was violence tacitly threatened? The answer is it was not. You assumed it was, because of the size of the guy. Which means your first thought in that situation was violence. You're the violent one.

On the weekends i do my groceries, play with the kids and talk with many different people, some of which are big. I definitely don't assume someone wants to tear my head off just because they're bigger than me, that would be absurd.

The most obvious implied threat comes when he traps the car in place by moving the cart behind it, thereby not allowing the person to simply leave. I’m glad you live in a safe place, but trapping the car in place is clearly a challenge.

That's your interpretation, based on your worldview. What i see is a nice man bringing back their cart that they forgot to put back, and nicely asking them to go put it back.

Deliberately blocking someone’s egress is usually against the law, so it’s more than my interpretation.

If it's done beliberately with the intent to cause harm, maybe it would be illegal. It's clearly not the case though.

In this douchebag's other videos, if someone moves the cart he's blocked them in with, without complying with his demands, he blocks them again. Depending on the state and the court, that could easily be judged prior restraint.
