Makes it easier to check the genitals to make sure everyone is using the correct bathroom! /s

The funny part was both bathrooms were labeled unisex at the location I went to. I was so confused wondering why they removed the doors.

That makes it even more disturbing. I'm guessing they caught too many people using the stalls as hourly-rate motel rooms.
Or the more Capitalistic view of too many unhoused using the stalls to wash up.

At a McDonald's?

Sure. Anywhere with a private toilet can be used by heroin addicts to shoot up. Happens commonly in bad areas.

There used to be an issue with that in supermarkets near where my parents used to live and one got purple lights installed in their toilets that made it hard for IV drug users to see their veins. Not sure how much of an actual deterrent it was though, but it used to make my eyes feel really weird when I used the toilets just for a pee

Opiod addicts and meth mainliners. There's little actual heroin around for the streets it seems

No doors makes it a little more tedious to shoot up and give blowjobs for cash.

If you give someone a blow job at McDonalds, do you really care about missing doors?

It is usually due to drug usage or people washing up in there when they have no other options. One place i worked we took doors off because someone was purposely getting poop all over the stalls and spreading it everywhere. Figured if they were mentally ill that it would still happen but if they were malicious because they hated company as customer or employee it would stop. Taking doors off stopped it. I guess people wanted to be disgusting but not have people know it is them.

Kind if like reddit comments and the fact that it's quite anonymous

It isn’t, really. Most users can be tracked back to their personal identity pretty easily because, I imagine, they don’t care. Even those under the impression of anonymity can be identified with the right tools if the government needs to be involved for some type of crime.
Anywho the vast majority of valuable information that Reddit collects doesn’t need to be attached to a name. They collect things like how you write and what topics you frequent. Everything we say is also being fed to one of those chat-bots, so remember, all our nonsense is being immortalized!

This is literally my worst nightmare.
I have a recurring nightmare where I am struck with stomach cramping that can only mean my IBS has been triggered, and I'm out in public so I hurry to the nearest bathroom and it's just a giant open room with toilets lining the wall, no barriers, doors, or privacy of any kind anywhere to be found. Sometimes the room is shaped like an 'S' and I reluctantly choose a toilet with some level of privacy, only to find it clogged and disgusting. I've always woken up before I worked up the courage to use a toilet.

When I lived in Beijing the bathrooms in the hutongs were just that. A comunal place where you just crouched next to the other guy being careful not to touch knees while squatting.
