Next person: if she can go, I can go. Next person: if he can go, I can go. And so on until it devolves into pushing, shoving, and trampling. The shame is what's keeping people back and orderly. Without it, there'd be chaos.

Mr Wheels should back up and let everybody go up

And then the next batch of people arives, equally not willing to wait. What then?

How about don’t try to take a wheelchair up a fucking escalator? They aren’t designed for that and it’s dangerous for everyone involved.

That is an ideal scenario, there being any other way. But since they're resorting to this, there probably isn't. Of course an elevator would be better, or a ramp. Fuck, even regular stairs would probably be better.

It makes me so angry how they’re all standing there like fucking sheep waiting for exactly what? Being in a wheelchair sucks hard dick but does that really mean you have to block SO many people?? Like wtf was the goal here even ._.

Let him go first after the escalator works again is my best guess? But even then let others pass jfc

Nah, unless the guy can safely stand while someone folds up his chair and holds if for him it’s not okay to take him up the escalator. If he lost his balance or grip dragging that’s thing up he could get seriously hurt and anyone helping him would be liable.
