Justice and fairness overrides all this. Your attitude of lets ignore injustices and plain unfairness of the situation is perhaps why the world is such a mess, everyone ignores the little injustices and they keep on accumulating and building into larger ones. How is reciprocity a bad thing? I have EU passport as well, so it really affects me not - it is all about not ignoring the "wrongs" in the world. I think such attitude as your exactly describes why nothing has and likely will never be done to improve the situation, few are willing to complain and folks just "bend over".
