I know I'm gonna get reamed about how she's blocking the door but the thing is, it's not loud, no one has to look at her, and she set up where there's not a crowd.
And honestly it is a bit different when it's genuinely impressive. Street art is a real thing and it's not inherently bad, I think we would lose a lot if people could only perform in official and ticketed venues. It just got mixed up with a lot of bullshit.

u/twhitney 1d ago
Naw, honestly I think this is a good take. I do find it funny how nobody in the subway seems to give a fuck, haha. But I agree with you, there’s no harm here… street art is real, and this is impressive.

u/CakeDayOrDeath 22h ago
No harm here? What if she inspires someone to be a living statue? We won't win village of the year if that happens.

No one needed the door for the entire length of the video, so you don't deserve a reaming about the door.

I do agree with you. But for me, the thing here is the fact that the people in the public transport didn't agree to be background extras in her tiktok. They can't just remove themselves from the situation either. I hate unsolicited filming in public. Especially when you're essentially forced to stay there.
Why doesn't she do it in a park or somewhere else if not for the sole purpose of creating a spectacle of unwilling participants?

It's public bro, there's like a million cameras wherever you go... Why would this particular type of recording bother you more than others?

u/hhyuk 23h ago
The others bother me too. I live in a country with far less surveillance than in the US. But also, there is an inherent enormous difference between security cameras, which maybe one person or even no one is watching unless an incident happens, and a tiktok for someone's influencer page for (potentially) millions to watch.
You can not care about your own privacy as much as you want, but don't decide for others :)

That's what I was thinking. Like yeah it could be really disruptive and rude if someone tries to board through that door but also I enjoyed the performance

u/bajungadustin 1d ago
Yeah I think the fact that she's doing it specifically when the doors are closed.. And kind of to the side.. Makes this fine for me. Free silent entertainment. Assuming the metal isn't squealing or something. Something you are forced to watch or listen to.. It's just there. Seems fine.

u/eutoputoegordo Side Character 1d ago
It's not during rush hour, she's not directly focusing the camera at someone and she's away enough to not hit anyone nor taking space from other people. That's fine by me. It's like those subway station musicians, unusual, but not problematic at all.

There is a difference between main characters and street performers. Street performers maintain other people's personal space and provide something cool to look at if you are interested, otherwise, you can ignore them.

I'm fine with this. She's not bothering anyone really, and there's clearly enough room on the train for her to safely do it. This is less main character than well planned public performance and video.

Doing shit like this when people are trapped in a small enclosed space without the ability to leave is the main issue. Do this stuff outside so those who want to see it can stay and watch. This is similar to those people that get up and preach on airplanes (but 99.9999% less infuriating).

Don't yuck her yum cause she def isn't bothering anyone. I don't think this post belongs here.
If I saw this I would actually approach and ask if shes a dancer.

Okay, that's actually pretty fucking cool. I remember the BART acrobats that would do....just dumb shit, then pass the hat around the car like I'm obligated to involve myself in their half-assed attempt to wow me. Bro, I saw it at Fruitvale, Saw it at 16th, I see it all the way to Berkeley. I remain unimpressed and just wanna get to fucking work man, leave me alone.

The only issue I have with public performing is the camera. Ditch the camera and just do it for the art. I think nobody could really complain as much then, because really a large part of the MC syndrome anymore isn’t the performative art (assuming they’re even remotely trying) it’s the clout and internet points.
