that made me incredibly sad. I wonder what goes through their minds as they stare and walk by without breaking stride.
shit like this has been happening in america for ages and happens every year, with a case I read not too long ago of pple seeing a guy get shot somewhere in Brooklyn i think and no one helped. I still remember the thread of the homeless hero who saved a woman from attacker, got stabbed and lay in street bleeding dying while many pple many just passed w/o helping. its so hard for me to comprehend the whole bystander effect going on in these situations.
are we so self absorbed that we hardly can grasp reality of what is happening? or maybe we fully comprehend but fear acting on it.....and rationally why blame them, although i'd think instinct to help another would take over here
IDK about china, but I could supposedly try to help someone by pulling them out of a house that was on fire and they could sue me for my heroic deed; trespassing, damaging door/property, maybe they twisted their ankle while i was trying to save their life so get sued for their injuries, sexual harassment for doing CPR and so on. Or in schools, they wont even give you a band-aid for cuts, ect unless you sign contract.
