There was a video going around today of a guy stopping some people from cutting in line at an amusement park and somebody can be heard on the video saying, “this guy is acting like he’s an authority” and it’s just like, yeah, exactly. That’s the thing. That’s the big thing. That’s the big difference. It’s 100 million people all acting like they’re the authority, because they are the authority. Because they know the rules and they’re going to make sure that you follow them. No free riders.
The motto in every shitty neighborhood in the country, on the other hand, is that it ain’t your business. Mind your own business. Don’t you worry about me.
You hate the Karen’s to the detriment of your society. Of course they’re annoying, sometimes. But every nice place on earth is full of people who don’t mind their own damn business, who are absolutely committed to the idea that you’re going to follow the rules, people who make that their business.
The thing is, almost no one except Protestant Christian and Japanese Males actually believe in “the rules must be followed impartially for society to work”
There’s a huge category of people who know the rules, and how to apply them, but will drop them for their own benefit
