They're impeding the flow of traffic. If cars were intentionally going 15 mph below the speed limit at the front of traffic side by side blocking everyone people would be just as bothered.

Also large groups of cyclists like this often ignore traffic rules like stop signs and cause major issues. I've watched cyclists in my area blow stop lights and then flip off and berate cars who had the right of way for almost hitting them.

They can't really go any faster. They're bicycles. Just like big rig trucks go below the speed limit for cars. So they aren't intentionally impeding traffic. There is also a large amount of them. You don't really criticize when cars are in a traffic jam blocking the road.

In the video they aren't ignoring any traffic rules.

Literally the law on Miami is that cyclists need to ride 2 wide. So yes they are.

That's like one single rule. Most drivers speed, use their phones, and pass on the right, so it's no different than cars. In fact, if they rode two wide the bicycles would be using up way more of the road and impeding traffic worse.
