Everyone deserves basic dignity, even people you disagree with. If a friend acts badly at a party, get 3 or 4 others and talk to them together. The real betrayal is abandoning a sober friend who's being mistreated.
Does every human being deserve a basic level of dignity and respect? Yeah, and every means every. That means the people you disagree with everything they did that night still deserve dignity and respect. That means the person you hate. That means your ex. That means friends you don't talk to anymore. Every means every. So then the question becomes, all right, got that. How do you actually intervene? What do you do to intervene? Well, you're at a party normally because you're with friends, right? So walk up to 3 or 4 friends and be like, hey, can you back me up? Instantly, your friends are like, let's go. Just keep this in mind. When your friend is drunk and inappropriate, will you still stand by their side? This is where most people fail. Their friend starts swearing at them, let's say, you blank blank, you're just jealous I'm getting some and you're not. And this friend who's sober and knows what's going on bails because they're like, screw you. And then they go, I'm a good friend. No, you literally just bailed on them in their most vulnerable moment.
