    Put your cart back when you’re done shopping

    OP didn’t make a blanket statement that “anyone who does X is a piece of shit.”

    He said an unwritten rule, like your own statement:

    Don’t be stupid

    Which is significantly closer to ableism than the shopping carts, with the implication that anyone who is stupid is a piece of shit.

    I don’t think there’s anything wrong with saying “don’t be stupid,” for the record, but in case you weren’t aware, people with brain damage are included under “anyone.”

    You’ve picked a bizarrely specific hill to die on.
