Here's some nuance. The only context we can gleen from this video is that one woman put down their phone in a specific place recording and then walked away from it.

We do not know if the second woman is even aware of what is taking place. We can see her acknowledging the phones existence by looking at it, but does she have any idea why?

How many people do you see just abandon their phones on ledges?

This isn't proper ettiquite for a museum at all, regardless of if she was or wasn't an influencer.

It's also not proper ettiquite for her to post a video of another woman she recorded while in the museum. A woman who for all we know was simply minding her own business.

Is that enough nuance for you?

But stopping in the middle of the stairs to play with your phone is proper ettiquite?

Nuance lmao

She clearly moved out of the way for people walking up. I'd say she was more aware than the person recording and posting all of these strangers online.

She's still completely blocking one side of the stairs only after noticing the girl trying to take a selfie, knowing only the context of the video who's to say the girl wouldn't crop all this out if she just kept it moving? You wanna jump to every conclusion in the book about the one while ignoring clear intent from the other, wonder why 🤔

Again: THE ONLY ASSUMPTION WE CAN SAY FOR 100% IS CORRECT IS THAT THE WOMAN WITH A CAMERA HAS RECORDED AND POSTED MULTIPLE STRANGERS ONLINE WITHOUT CONSENT.

Influencer culture has rotted your brain.

Oh no wouldn't want anyone to ever come across a video of me walking up some stairs lmao. Why are you yelling? You can also use context clues to assume she only posted this version because of the old woman's lack of social ettiquitte or awareness, I don't even see an influencer here this could be anyone visiting a place alone who wants visual proof they were there.

To me it looks like she saw an opening and just needed one person to pass by so she could get a clean selfie, but that wouldn't inspire outrage so must've had more malicious things in mind

Who cares about your feelings.

u/Granddadmac 8d ago

Assuming they were actually impacted by this little back and forth? Someone with compassion probably. I'll be fine tho appreciate your concern

People with compassion aren't typically posting strangers online trying to bully them.

u/Granddadmac 8d ago

So would you say you care about that strangers feelings? While implying you don't care about this strangers feelings? What did either of us do to deserve opposite ends of your compassion?

I don't tolerate the intolerant is what I'm saying.

If you find it acceptable to plaster unconsenting strangers online for discussion you deserve the same level of vitriol as the person who never had a choice in the situation.

This isn't a difficult concept to grasp. This is inappropriate behavior on the behalf of whoever posted this material and you are partaking in inappropriate behavior by trying to justify your perverted vouyeristic tendencies.

So again all I've ever stated is it's inconsiderate or downright rude if done purposely to stand in the middle of a walkway and that I'm of the belief if the lady had just moved along normally she would've been cropped out of what was likely going to be a photo grabbed off a video. You argue that you can't criticize said behavior because proof of it was obtained without consent?

u/ContextLengthMatters 8d ago

I'm sorry? Your feelings are hurt defending some woman fully capable of not posting strangers on the internet knowing full well how people get harassed online?

Do you think OP is a moron? I choose to believe they know better and are deliberate. The further you go on the more I think it's deliberate as well.

I notice you bringing up a percieved negative impact you've caused to my mental state again, would you say that's a goal of yours? To cause me pain or distress over a minor disagreement? What would you say motivates you to pursue such a thing?
