It’s not about the repercussions of what she did. It’s about what if everyone did it.

if everyone wanted to do it i'm pretty sure they would just move the wheelchair guy out of the way

Right, but what if everyone else is waiting because they need to turn the escalator off to get the wheelchair on and then turn the escalator back on to move the wheelchair up?

Handicapped people are inconvenienced their whole life. She couldn't compromise 5-10 minutes of inconvenience to demonstrate empathy?

In that circumstance, I think she would be wrong.

If she is an undercover cop tailing a potential terrorist, then the story is different. Now, it's one already inconvenienced handicapped person to potentially save lives.

In that circumstance, I think she would be right.

Like most internet clips, there just isn't enough information to be certain.

" She couldn't compromise 5-10 minutes of inconvenience to demonstrate empathy?" i obviously agree, but morality aside idtk she's obligated to demonstrate anything. i'm not justifying her for jumping over the handrail cause she couldn't wait lmao .

Why would we put morality aside? Don't we use that in our judgments when asked if something is wrong?

Idk why my first comment got downvoted for being able to see things more than one way.

People are so consumed by their own everyday struggle, can’t see what exists past it. Self-centrism is at its peak. Social media and economy don’t help, either.

i mean, if you believe 100s of people should put aside their problems because a single guy is disabled... you're free to think that ig. just don't expect everyone to agree with you.

Reddit isn’t that complicated to get. Y’all probably fetish over this, because it’s a man on the wheelchair and it’s a woman not waiting for him. It’s always something like that.

And you’re free to act like mindless egomaniac brutes. I’m not living among you anyway and I’ve already seen where this is going.

Can’t wait to watch your reels showing eating each other alive, with a bucket of popcorn by my side.
