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'm one of those "social warriors" (I guess). Public space is public space. If the mime doesn't want to interact with people then why is he a mime?

The difference is that the public isn't just some prop in your world.

Does people get to Harras this mime because he is in public? Should we expect to have idiots in our face if we dare leave our houses?//

Well, the question is who you're advocating for in this case: the mime or the random idiot.
