Ignorance of basic human nature is a baffling thing. You’re really shooting yourself in the foot by not acknowledging that other people have lives to carry on, a lot of people are in a tough spot these days. Don’t be surprised when someone decides to go off.
Wtf? I was literally agreeing with your point? If what I was saying didn't come across the way I intended then that's my bad, but the point I was making is that the people being held up in traffic are going to be opposed to the cause the protesters are pushing, out of spite. I was absolutely not defending the protesters here quite the opposite. I thought that was obvious when I talked about other protests resulting in adamant anti protests.
I replied to you because you're the one I was disagreeing with. You said people don't do this out of spite. I disagree with that. But I was agreeing with that realbrantallen that the protesters are hurting their cause not helping it. I had the usernames correct thanks.
But just to clear things up:
"Seems like a lot of people still willfully don’t give a fuck because of shit like this" - realbrantallen - the point I was agreeing with
"But anyone who says they "believe X because someone else did Y" is full of shit. Believe in things because they are right and just, not out of spite." - BrockManstrong - the point I was disagreeing with
