      it would be hard for me not to intervene though, if I saw someone being assaulted. probably even today. idk what to do about this.

          one time I thought I heard a guy being assaulted or something but I ran outside and it was a big dude screaming not in pain but drunk, and yelling at his likely drug dealer who just looked tired of it all https://twitter.com/allopalo1/status/1377341345434529792?s=19 …

          Similar boat. Instant karma subreddits are fun to watch but would I really jump in/ throw down unless I felt real real confident of the outcome?

          I just feel like I have a responsibility to intervene, which will vary depending on intensity of what's going on, the parties involved, etc. And if it's an old woman being kicked in the head by large man, I don't think I could or would want to stop myself.

          Replying to @eigenrobot

          One of my less popular takes is that it is often immoral to intervene in situations, because intervention will often cause the situation to escalate, and that isn't good for you or the victim. It depends a lot on context of course, but the discourse often ignores the risk.

          Like perhaps there's a way to resolve this with actively training people on how to best intervene in a situation, but I think it's a thing that is very hard to do well, most people are bad at it, and the people who encourage it don't have any grasp of the risks.
