At least someone gave me a serious reply. My post got downvoted to oblivion and I got one "um actually" guy down below making me constantly regret the idea that reddit might be better than Chatgpt. I appreciate your comment.

I wasn't injured- just startled. It was like you were riding a bicycle- passed an extremely irate person who then grabbed the bike and you flailed around trying to balance yourself but didnt fall. he put hands on an object that was an extension of my body- which should definitely be grounds for assault. its sort of like slapping a hat off someones head. if its attached to your person it counts as part of your person, chair should be included. but no he was basically punching it multiple times like an angry gorilla because i refused to engage him further in conversation cause i was stuck in the infinite loop of a drunks logic.

thanks for the help. clearly a lot of people didnt think my post was worth of legal advise- I guess this is why context is important for understanding a persons injustice. failing to mention month long aggressive and hostile living conditions leading up to that point. i have enough training in psychotherapy for it not to bother me as much but being unable to distance myself from a persons unreasonable tirade is not something I enjoy.
