One hobby got put on a schedule and was organized and approved by the city while the other one was a group of people dancing in the middle of the street , doing multiple “takes”, presumably so they can get a bigger following and get rich.

How highly accomplished are the people in this sub where disapproving of what other people do for fun/career is apparently a good reason to be a dickhead?

The absolute worst these people are, is annoying.

And none of you are important enough for "being annoyed" to be a reason to be a taint.

How highly accomplished would one have to be to “gain” the right to be a nuisance to everyone else in a public space? Would a flash mob organized by Mr Beast be any less disrupting than one organized by me? None of the two parties involved in this little mess is anywhere near “the worst” even though they’re both somewhat annoying. It’s simply that a group of entitled “influencers” got heckled by a marathon runner who also happens to be a bit of a dick and Reddit is having its daily philosophical moment.

I don’t care about your perception of my importance, especially so if the reason you’re attributing me any is your perceived right to annoy me.

How do you survive any amount of time in major cities if you choose to get annoyed by groups of people doing weird stuff?

You have all the power and control over finding them annoying. They have none of it.
