Light Rail Capacity – Why are we so mean to each other?

Why is seattle so against full trains? I just got on the light rail post mariners game at Capitol Hill and was berated. I was told to wait for the next train despite there being room. Was it tight? Of course! I’m just confused why 5 different individuals commented

1) you’re gonna smell my arm pits 2) there’s no room (as I found a spot) 3) You should wait for the next train (but refused to make eye contact with me) 4) I would have waited for the next tran 5) I have been on the train longer then you

I’ve lived here 10 years. Seattle preaches about being so accepting, but the minute you encroach their “bubble” on public transit all bets are off. I love you Seattle and the puget sound region. We can do better. We can be more inviting, and make room for others.
