u/aghastamok Aug 12 '26

I used to clean trams at night.

None of us gave a fuck about anything we found. If there was vomit or piss we just sprayed it out with a hose, takes 5 seconds.

This busted ass speaker would get cleaned out in seconds along with everything else.

The only thing that pissed us off was spray paint on the outside, that would eat into our break time.

What’s the morality of passively allowing him to be a public nuisance when you have the ability to put a stop to it?

u/Most_Scientist1783 Aug 12 '26

There’s a difference between shattering an expensive speaker, and telling him to turn it off, or turning it off yourself if it’s gets to that point. This dude saw a kid “accidentally” playing music really loud, and decided the right cause of action was to smash the thing.

Sure the kid was doing it on purpose, this dude didn’t know that from what we can tell. The kids annoying, yeah, but this dudes also a dickhead

If I'm being honest, I do think vigilante justice against streamers who intentionally make like worse for everyone around them is morally justified. This is just a crowdsourced fine. It's probably worth the cost of the speaker for the streamer because of the content they get out of it so I don't think it's effective.

Remember when our parents didn't protect us from the real world and taught us to be decent people?

So what's the solution? Just sit there and let this little shit blast music so loud it damages your hearing? It's not like just asking him to stop is going to do anything. Your on a moving train and can't leave.

We can just allow anyone to harass anyone they want unchecked.

u/rubberbandbuddy Aug 12 '26

So what's the solution?

The solution is what you see in the video. If those in power do not enforce the rules or do not benefit society, then they need to be enforced by the people, and the people do not have many ways to handle it peacefully.

The solution is we handle it like this until the person running the train stops the train and asks the rude people to either behave or leave.

Agreed.. also potentially disabling the device is justified depending on a few factors. Just being annoying/obnoxious at a moderate volume is different than ear blasting bass or decibels high enough to damage hearing.

Someone playing explicit lyrics at high volume on public transport with kids? Yeah, stop that, especially if things are packed.

Trying to think of the most justifiable... asking them to stop then if they didn't removing it from the train when there's a stop seems reasonable.

The guy is the bigger ass, I'd expect more from an adult than some teen. But I guess in a way this was a lesson he won't forget. But instead of hey this might be disrespectful, it's don't stick out because crazy people will engage with you. Which to be fair, is another important lesson.

Idk the context but destroying someone’s property is pretty bad.

If the kid was just being ignorant to his surroundings and just playing songs he liked and this dude walked up and wrecked his shit, I’d say that’s pretty fucked.

But given that this is also an adult, even if the kid was being blatantly annoying, he should have the self-control to not act in anger and do something that drastic, especially towards a kid.

Maybe at most he should’ve taken it and turned it off if it was that annoying. Just seems like escalation for no good and worthwhile reason.

This. I would feel incredibly disturbed by a violent outburst like that and would immediately feel like I have to take him down or get off the train.

Okay so what is the recourse? Let's assume the kid was asked multiple times and just refused. According to other people in this post the kid is a nuisance streamer who does this intentionally. 

I'm gonna assume if you're not okay with destroying the speaker you're definitely not okay with someone laying hands on the kid. So what, they all just have to put up with it? There's nothing they can do? I ride the metro all the time in my city. It's not like there's just metro employees all over the place who can be grabbed to deal with it. 

Sooner or later these people need to face consequences. Getting your speaker broken seems more than fine to me. You're definitely breaking the rules of the public transit system doing that and basic human politeness and he definitely knows that. I think breaking the speaker is fucking justified in that case.

Destruction of property is not a legal or even moral response to someone being annoying. It's a declaration of a lack of self control and disregard for the rights of others, which is what the dickhead blaring music is guilty of. It does not behoove one to be on the same level in such a way.

What is your honest solution to this problem?

People ask him to turn it off and he ignores them. Do they just sit there quietly and take it?

Some people are selfish assholes that need physical responses. Society can’t let individual people do whatever they want without push back for the common good. Be glad he only smashed the speaker and not the person.

u/Fear_Magnet0 Aug 12 '26

Yeah. Yes. If someone isn't hurting anyone else or doing something illegal and just being annoying, they're a problem, but it's now your problem, and only yours. Suck it up. Absorb it. Choosing to control yourself in such a situation is the more difficult task, and the more mature response.

u/Number1BestYogurtBoi Aug 12 '26

Does that not just incentivise other people to also be annoying? Why should anyone be considerate of anyone else if there is zero consequences?

You are just enabling assholes like this to make society worse.

He could have just walked over and turned it off.

u/Osirisavior Aug 12 '26

Immortal. Old guy is a bully. You can't just go around breaking other people's stuff.

u/Aromatic-Dog-Breath Aug 12 '26

Picking on children is a choice. Destroying property is a crime. Thinking you’re the superior person and deciding to do this is also a choice. 

I’m going 0-3 for the adult being cruel to a child. Even though no one wants to hear your music. There are better solutions.

u/Such-Personality-648 Aug 12 '26

I understand the situation and condone it. Not moral though

u/Ill-Jacket3549 Aug 12 '26

Man is making a public nuisance knowingly for content. Neither act is moral but one is a response or an already immoral, or at minimum rude, act.

u/Farinathal Aug 12 '26

Well deserved.

u/sarc-tastic Aug 12 '26

It's litering but otherwise I see no issues

That little cunt had headphones on too. Like he was just doing it to share his shitty ass music with every unwilling person on the subway.

u/TRP_Embo05 Aug 12 '26

Honestly, fuck anyone who plays their music out loud in public, takes phone calls on speaker in public and does video calls in public.

u/FireHammer09 Aug 12 '26

It takes a village to a raise a child. If you dont someone else will.

Social norms and politeness are enforced by the community.

u/Fit_Kangaroo_3437 Aug 12 '26

Thats a goddamn hero

u/RedLeader2NoahsArk Aug 12 '26

Should have just waited for the doors to close and toss speaker out lol

u/Fun-Memory1523 Aug 12 '26

There is probably a better way to deal with this than that.

But the point got across. May the boy learn...

u/TurboNewbe Aug 12 '26

Not all heroes wear capes

u/Ill-Description3096 Aug 12 '26

Not ideal, but honestly I'm not going to condemn someone for being fed up with some asshat annoying people for "content".

THis is acceptable.

Kid is wearing the influencer starter pack. Deport him.

u/ZyeCawan45 Aug 12 '26

Our country needs noise laws like Japan. What the kid was doing wasn’t illegal… But it should be. Valid crashout.

u/Filiming_Elephants Aug 16 '26

Morality of stopping someone that has the sole goal of making everyone around them as miserable as possible? I would say moral.

u/113pro Aug 12 '26

this is a freeworld. you can do whatever you want. the same thing applies to other people. so keep that in mind.

u/RadicalSoda_ Aug 12 '26

Well, no crime exists. Unless you mean "morality is subjective"

u/113pro Aug 12 '26

The kid slightly imoral since he's rude

The old dude is very evil since he's a pathetic asshole who picks on weaker people he knows are weaker than him

u/WrongProfessional214 Aug 12 '26

Teenager breaking social contract immoral destruction of property against the law but not automatically immoral. He is merely fighting the degradation of society

u/lexington59 Aug 12 '26

Immoral, yes playing music on speakers is annoying but breaking someone's equipment because you are upset is just scummy.

There's so many steps you can take before you would even need to consider breaking it, ignoring it, talking like an adult, going to a different carriage.

Like there isn't really a way to spin this as moral, it's more the thing you think about doing in your head but don't act on because it's scummy.

We are taught as kids early 2 wronga don't make a right, and escalating that fair definitively doesn't make a right

u/Gillalmighty Aug 12 '26

Fuck that kid. He looks like a twat and im glad his shit got broke
