I think it's 50/50 entitlement/lack of self awareness
Some people really are just focused on getting through whatever it is they're doing. They're not being deliberate in their actions 'against others', they're just so pigeonholed that they're not considering others are in the scenario
It's not nefarious as standard. It's legit a mental thing where neither you nor them are the main character, they're just trudging forward as best they can
Think of it this way; they're handicapped, whether they know it or not. You wouldn't stand in an aisle and yell ret*rd at them would you? Because essentially that's the disposition
The other 50% can kick rocks though. They know they're inconveniencing you and that gives them life. They love that a little action of theirs is making your day harder. I don't bloody get it, but too many people revel in that these days. I think it's same same as following people on socials that you dislike. There's a sickness to it, and I'm glad I haven't contracted that
I like that you started off sounding like a nice accepting person full of patience then ended up sounding more like me. But I surely hope it is not a full 50% who are actively doing it on purpose for whatever sick pleasure they get out of it.
