Other passengers watched but did nothing, police reported.

Ideal citizens of a "compassionate" socialist state. Do nothing, see nothing, and wait for the police to (eventually) take care of the problem.

Far from creating a sense of community, socialism fosters an every man for himself attitude, as you noted, where people are conditioned to be like sheep.
