      I measure my response to other people’s careless behavior against my own values, and the fact that I have a family and shit to lose in the event the first person decides to escalate.

      Hell yes I get taken advantage of all the time. And what do I do about it? Usually nothing. I carry great privilege in this life, including race, gender, physical stature, nationality, geography, wealth, among others. I know the advantage I have over others well outweighs any advantage taken over me.

      Now that I’ve answered your questions, answer mine: Do you think that in your life you won’t be taken advantage of? Do you think that someone parking over the line is taking advantage of you personally? Do you seek revenge and retribution for every slight against you?

        I couldn’t give a fuck about myself.

        It isn’t retribution for myself but for all people this and similar fools may take attempt to advantage of. I’ll insert myself into their insanity in order to correct their behaviour, so the next person doesn’t have to deal with it. I love real, actual justice. Not just talking about it and ending up with Trump.

        I have been in physical fights before, over someone throwing cigarette butts on the ground. I’ve dragged men away from women that are being harassed. I have escalated situations to points you would hate, simply because I find the instigators behaviour disgusting and in dire need of correction. If you want to accept terrible behaviour, be my guest, I, however, will not. I’m intolerant towards intolerance and I’m too busy correcting fuckwits to argue philosophy with people on a much higher horse.

        Enjoy riding your privilege and just forget about those that don’t have it, sounds relaxing. I’ll continue to live by a consistent set of morals, and people around me can suffer the consequences.

                So? The US is a fantastic example of people that just talk a lot about how to get people to stop parking where they shouldn’t, instead of doing <literally anything useful>. You got mad when accused of being a centrist, wonder why.
