      If a singular instance make you believe everything is indeed that way, then maybe the problem is you.

      No, I don’t know which one. And I don’t want to watch people get hurt so I won’t seek it out either. There are incidents in this world that fit the theory of the bystander effect. That is not what I question. I’m questioning your calculation of odds regarding intervention. There are enough examples of “heroes without capes” that did intervene as well, also within groups of people.

      A shower thought doesn’t have to be well thought through. On the flip side, you don’t have to double down on it when folks point out the flaws.
