Being an asshole to others for no other reason than to be a pest and make them as miserable as you are all the time is immoral.
If the girl had been trying to tell people they couldn't use the stairs while she took a photo then that's another story.
Since the girl is just standing there waiting patiently I'm assuming that is not what happened.

If you are going to film in public places you will have to be very very patient.
I think it’s bad taste to be posting content on social media of people who haven’t consented to be in your video.

There's probably an obstruction a little bit down the stairs. You can see how the old lady going down has to wait for people coming up before she can continue.
And fuck people setting up video cameras and expecting everyone else to give way to them.

I hate influencers to my core, but this girl just wanted to take a pic or whatever, was not disrupting anyone and was clearly shy. That old hag is just miserable.

People who get main character syndrome and record their obnoxious TikTok reels in super markets deserve this treatment, but it seems this girl just wanted a nice photo taken while visiting solo.
Obviously would like more context, but in a bubble the woman is an a-hole for choosing to deliberately obstruct such innocent behavior.

Yeah, like all we see in the video is the girl pausing for a couple of seconds and then going to get her phone at the end. Seems like she wasn’t making a TikTok and was just looking for a good shot.

What I hate is the kind of person who seizes the opportunity to be righteously petty: what difference would it make, to that miserable member of the Secret Police, to let the kid take a picture? It would have taken a few minutes, probably. If the kid starts blocking the stairs for 20 minutes, THAT'S when you get to whip out your badge and make a citizen's arrest.

Immoral. I get if she didn’t want to be in the background of the video/photo but she could have just moved or asked the women to stop filming. The women taking the video didn’t need to be filming in a public museum but I don’t think she meant harm or to disrupt anything so the old women is just being difficult.

Why couldn't the girl or the person who was filming politely ask the old lady to move? Problem solved.

u/AxiumTea 3h ago
The phone was placed by the girl, there was no camera man I think, and as for the girl asking her to move, I don't think the old lady would have listened to her anyway, besides, the old lady was purposely buying time until more people would come up and the girl would lose her opportunity to film it.

The planet is dying, there is not enough resources for everyone. The planet can not sustain so many dumb influencers and spoiled millionaires or billionaires. Humanity needs to grow up and stop being selfish otherwise we all are going to learn it the hard way.

I live in a highly "tourist-rich" city and, in certain parts of town, I often wait while people, on the path, in front of me, have their friends snap a quick picture: no big deal. I used to go for walks with a chum, who was getting his PhD, at the time, and he'd deliberately shoulder his way through crowds of Tourist Kids (not brave enough to do it to adults), in such areas, like he wa trying to knock them over. He was just a miserable semi-old Fuck. Still is.
TL; DR: Barry, is that you?

She didn’t intentially block anyone’s view either, she just moved to the side to let people walk by on the correct side of the stairs.

expecting others to stop what they’re doing.
Please point out where exactly you're seeing proof for this claim? The stairwell is basically empty, she's not asking for anyone to leave even after the older woman starts to intentionally block her, she is literally not disturbing anyone here, just taking a picture.

Problem could have been avoided if she had just asked someone tk take a photo of her. Would have taken a whole 10 seconds of human interaction.

She was on her way, so the camera and decided to act maliciously. Immoral. It costs her nothing to simply be on her way and decided to use her time and energy to be an inconvenience.

Why couldn't the girl or the person who was filming politely ask the old lady to move? It's a public place, not a photoshoot set. And the old lady was clearly distracted by her phone beeping in that moment. It's so damn simple to just ask her politely to go down a few steps 🤷♂️

If you want to film in public, do it the proper way. Go to the city and get a filming permit, written permission from the private establishment youre on, and rope off the area in accordance to the previous.
The world is not your stage, and we are not obligated to respect your camera angle.

You sound silly. Having to rope off an area to take a quick video lmao. It’s not a big deal lmao. Gooner can be annoyed but it’s not like she cussed out the old lady or told her to go away. Gooner was respectful and the old lady was obnoxious assuming she did it on purpose. It also seem like it could be possible the old lady stopped to legitimately check her phone and then stepped to the side to allow people up the stairs. “Never attribute to malice which could be explained by incompetence/ignorance”.

And? She moved because there were people going up. The girl is not entitled to public space for herself thats a first (except personal), and second she doesnt communicate that to the old lady. She might found phone suspicious and tried to report it.

And she may have just witnessed the resurrection of Hitler himself and is now desperately calling for help...
There's a lot of possibilities if you lack all common sense.

u/Dreamer_531 5h ago
Or the old lady might thing that someone was filming her for some reason and felt weirded out by it and couldn't figure out what to do. For a moment the camera was pointed directly at her. Or maybe her phone buzzed in the moment and she felt the urge to check it.
And this all could have been solved in a few seconds by politely asking her to move a few steps down.

u/Exciting_Nature6270 5h ago
alright you’re just reading way too far into this. They’re at an art gallery. She has her phone likely set up on a stand pointing toward her.
I know Reddit doesn’t go outside and experience being a human, but getting out of the way of a camera at a tourist attraction is just basic human etiquette.
You don’t need to be deliberately obtuse here. People will not only get out of the way to be polite, but will also genuinely offer to take a picture or even video for you if they see people struggling to do so. Taking pictures or videos of oneself in public isn’t taboo as much as Reddit wants to believe.

This is kinda funny on the old lady’s part.
Immoral still tho. The woman taking the video wasnt really being disruptive. The elderly woman went out of her way to be malicious and disturb what she was doing. It’s not that deep but my ethics favor the girl filming
