But then you’re in a public space. Ppl will talk in public, and have every right to do so. That’s what a liberal society is abt.

They have that right, yes. I'm arguing not to campaign for overturning the current etiquette on the tube of being quiet.

But I’m saying more than that: that it’s important to realise that small personal inconveniences must be borne in a lib society.

They are borne. Not suggesting arresting ppl for it. Making an argument that its inconsiderate.

The campaign exists cos currently there's an expectation that we don't talk to each other. I'm saying this is a good thing.

Some ppl will be inconvenienced by noise, others by an expectation not to be quiet. I think latter is better.

@HPluckrose If you’re inconvenienced by noise in a public space, you have remedies available. Suggesting others shut up shldn’t be one.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes
That's an idea that can't be tolerated? That being quiet in confined spaces unless everyone wants to hear you is courteous?
