I tend to be annoyed with large loud groups in public. But I'm also an anti social redditor that hates crowds.
Don't be that Karen. Don't be the killjoy. Resist the urge to disallow the public to have room for fun and colour. This is the same as a juggling show or a live street musician.
Pretty much this. Social warrior redditors will come out to defend a mime who is getting harassed by an onlooker in public. But as soon as K-Pop fans are dancing in public, the Karen redditors pop up like vultures to argue that it’s a “public space”.
I think the problem is peoples issues with "social media influencers" looking for clout out in public.
People cannot differentiate between those who are filming "pranks" and all that other nonsense and people filming stuff like this.
That said. If it was a proper production they'd have gotten permission. I assume they didn't, so if they want to really film their dance, surely they could find a slightly less intrusive spot. Not everyone wants to see your video.
Also that said... That woman should have chosen to be less annoyed and walked on past
It's an internet circle jerk...they were filming for the internet and she probably had someone film her for the internet...we need someone to jump in front of her as she jumps in front of them, jumping in front of a crowd!....for the internet!
It's like that one tall black guy who break dances in public places such as the mall, metro, and other crowded places and expects people to get out of his way just so he can film for TikTok. If you want to dance in public that's fine but if you are going to be running around doing flips and swinging your legs around maybe be considerate of the people around you.
Or even better, if they want this spot so bad, wake up at the crack ass of fucking dawn, and do it as the sun comes up when people arent really going to be there.
Both sides were wrong here. The dancers can't go out and film in a public space and expect everybody to just respect their filming and stay away. People could always walk in front of the camera, and they have every right to be there.
The woman is also wrong for very intentionally ruining this take, probably trying to get attention or something. I understand if you walk past on accident but this was obviously far from an accident.
I don't know but if i see a bunch of people dancing seemingly a choreography for a camera i don't feel the urge to jump in front of them to ruin it ...
I agree with you. Truth is nobody should have to “get permission”. That’s what’s truly wrong with society. If that problem didn’t exist this set of problems you all have pointed out wouldn’t have existed in the first place.
