Dehumanized people necessarily act like animals.

Fucking ridiculous. I don't pretend to be some kind of particularly fight-capable badass or anything, but nothing would have stopped me from pulling that psycho off and planting a fist in his face.
Seeing people just stand by like that while someone obviously incapable of helping himself is being attacked... that's just sad.
You'd like to think that people are willing to stand up for eachother when it really becomes necessary, but a video like that just makes that idea seem a little too optimistic. The worst people in that video are the ones that just backed up and let it happen.


I do agree with that. It's a weird social psychological thing. Basically, people would help but they sometimes assume other people with more initiative would go out and do the deed for them. But as a consequence, everyone in the room is thinking the same thing.

This is the most notorious case of that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Kitty_Genovese

Diffusion of responsibility is a load of bollocks. Modern people, even in the "Oh, So Bad!" China, are too lazy because of their lives being automated and shallowed.

Patton was an idiot. His comments about race and nationality are enough to prove it.

"Modern people"? Get over yourself you hermit. The people ain't acting either coz they're in shock or fear for their own safety. I'll be honest, I'd only do something if:

A) There was a bunch of us helping out; or
B) If I had a long or long-ranged weapon

You see a guy munchin on someone's face and you don't know what the fuck's goin on. I don't want the cunt bitin me and infectin me with AIDS or some shit. Give me a baseball bat and two or three other people, I'd do summat, but if I'm stood in an enclosed space, no guarantee of back-up, and nothing to use as a weapon, I'm gettin the fuck outta there.

If it's someone you know, it's a different thing, obviously, but I probably wouldn't get involved if I was there. Especially bein surrounded by Chinese. I've seen plenty of news articles about terrible things happening over there as they just walk by and ignore it. Babies dying in the street, hit n run victims, and now this.

Not a cute girl or a child under 13. Where's the glory in saving that?

Just turn up your headphones and get off at the next stop.

Typical excuses of a self-loving modern person. Plus, country has nothing to do with that video.

Rakim's comment went too far IMO. That gif by Ryudo is far worse than any of the porn that was deleted here recently. A hypocritical world of loutishness.

The GIF was pretty much proving my point. And considering you're a self-admitted social recluse, your generalised opinion on the planet's population is about as valid as... Wait, no, there's nothing more invalid than your opinion. No analogys for you.

That gif wasn't proving your point. It's a well-known fact that human life is greatly devalued in China, but country has nothing to do with what happened in that particular video. My opinion can be invalid to you. It doesn't change anything. Oh, and don't use the world "generalization" in any form because you're guilty of the worst generalizations our there. You entire 'logic' is based on simplistic generalizations boxed in a third-rate jocularity.

I just got another check. Now I can replace a few other things. The rest goes in savings.
