      I don't think it is inconsistent to argue against a behaviour whilst accepting ppls right to do it.

      Inconsistent: you said you were arguing against overturning etiquette, when a badge wld do no such thing.https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/781465403822317568 …

      The etiquette in which we don't talk to strangers wld be overturned by this.

      Which, again, has nothing to do w being intrusive.

      I think reason most people don't start up conversations with strangers on tube is precisely cos they think it intrusive!

      With strangers *who you can’t be sure want to have a conversation*, yes. Which is exactly the point the badge addresses.

      Which is funny, and I’d love to see them in the wild. But that still has nothing to do w your argument.

      Which is mostly facetious until I got to people arguing that its sad or problematic to not want more talking on the tube.

      Coz this happens all the time. If you don't like social talk & you do like silence, not seen as preference but a failing.

      That its somehow selfish not to chat away to ppl but not remotely selfish to make others listen to your chatter.

          I will make the case for it being better generally to have a expectation of quiet than conversation in confined spaces.

          But mostly I am joking abt the expressions of horror & disgust coming from Londoners abt this. They're also mostly joking.

          The 2nd part doesn’t follow—the mistake you keep ignoring. Also, you’ve already agreed that loud talking *is* seen as selfish.

          I think it does follow. And its seen as selfish by people who agree with me. Obv I am addressing ppl who disagree.

          I think I'm in the majority with the tube issue &there will continue to be an expectation of not starting up convos on tube
