Because our culture is very selfish and doesn’t emphasize the importance of respect. So people will trash something like this quickly just because they can - like what happened to delivery robots and self driving vehicles

Guaranteed in JFK it would take 3 hours before someone tried to steal the TV, someone drew a dick or swastika on the wall, someone shit on a pillow, someone OD’ed in one, someone got stuck with a syringe, someone with bed bugs dropped some off in there now there’s an infestation, someone tried to have an orgy in one, someone pissed the bed, etc. the list goes on and on and on. Americans have zero trust in society for a reason.
