    It reminds me of Dave Chappelle when he said something like

    "You can be whoever you want to be, and I support it, but to what extent do I have to participate?"

    It's the same thing I want to tell libertarians. "I don't know how to explain to you that you need to care about other people. It's a two way street."

    People like Dave and the person who wrote the comment we are talking about view everything as transactional. I just don't know how to handle that.

        That's a good way to put it. You can't bend society to your will unless a majority signs up for it.

        That's why I keep to myself mostly. I still get to live my life, just away from other people who don't see things my way.
