I got the stink-eye today, like I was budging in front when I re-opened the door and got on (the train was stopped for a while) because other people waiting were too meek to squeeze in and get people to try a little harder to move towards the middle. I could see through the windows that there was a lot of room for way more people to get on if people stopped being so precious about their personal space or hanging out close to the doors. It’s not budging if no one else is willing to get on.

Maybe this is an AITA situation. I don’t think I am, but I didn’t feel like waiting for a third train. It should be fair game, right? The people who didn’t get on, made a choice of comfort over getting somewhere faster.
If you've ever taken transit in a mega city like Chicago or NY, aggressive squishing is the norm.
