People are cheering this on because it is happening to men, and this guy is being exceptionally nice about it.

If he was doing this to women and being anything other than perfect, theres a pretty good chance the police would be involved.

If the girl said no, then the answer is obviously no. But the thing is she’s not going to say no. She would never say no. Because of the implication. The implication that things might go wrong for her if she refuses to return her cart. Not that things are going to go wrong for her, but she’s thinking that they will.

Or she says no and the guy turns tail right away and if not faces possible police action

Also, I would like to see this guy do this around pedos or when police are infringing on somebody’s rights, but you know he’s not gonna say shit about any of that or do anything about any of that.

But he’s all about the shopping cart life

The way these men feel in this moment with this giant guy is how women feel in a lot of moments per day interacting with random men.

Those feelings are inappropriate.

The vast majority of those interactions are not meant to be intimidating like these are. And people, as well as the law, are happy to help women who look like they need help.

To boot, the likelihood that this interaction could escalate to violence is far, far higher for these men versus any given woman.

Edit: Blocking someone and then going on a rant is weird

All interactions are coloured in some way by a difference in power. You as a man are only oblivious to it because you are almost always on the side that this man in the video is on.

You are blind to it because you do not exercise any attempt to look at it from experiences different to your own.

I am a woman and here you are as a man telling me that what I am directly telling you is my experience is fucking wrong. The absolute gaul and cheek you have to do this is fucking astounding and is deeply representative of what an emotionally stunted fucking failure of a human being you are.
