I believe in self. You want change? Gotta do it yourself. Should have moved. Telling someone else to accommodate for your own discomfort is the opposite of self.

It’s understandable of course. But our feelings are our responsibility.

PATH rules: “No person shall play or operate any musical instrument or device, tape or disc player, radio or television anywhere on PATH property except with the use of personal headphones or earphones producing sounds audible only to the user thereof.”

OP wasn’t asking the person to accommodate them. OP was asking the person to follow the rules. That’s not asking others to accommodate OP. That’s asking others to not be rude.

This is poor logic. Sure there have been bad rules in the past. Sure there are still some bad rules now. That doesn’t mean that all rules should be disregarded or all rules are meaningless. The rule in question is a good one that’s intended to promote basic courtesies between people.

My point is relying on regulations for what’s best for yourself is dumb. It’s putting your personal power in the hands of a sign. Only one person is gonna stand up for self. And that’s self.

That wasn’t a rule, that was systemic racism specifically built to keep ex-slaves in a box. How the fuck does that even compare to wearing headphones in a public place and showing consideration for others?

You know what? I’m out because you took an unnecessary hard left turn here.
