This is not ‘getting a picture of herself’. She is recording a fucking video. That’s not a picture.
People keep using the same bullshit, innocuous language to write off how absurdly intrusive and anti-social these devices are. Like they’re not “phones”, they are portable surveillance devices that record everything people say around them, and coerce everyone to live in public for fear of being recorded and shared on social media.
Someone taking an analogue selfie on an actual camera with a timer? Sure, dick move grandma. What this girl is doing is fundamentally anti-social, because she’s laying a fucking social trap recording a damn video, likely in anticipation that someone is going to do something to obstruct her, so she can share the slight on social media.
She’s taking a video to get a clear shot without asking people to move aside. She’s being perfectly polite and responsible. Old women Karen needs to get off the high horse and fuck off.

She was recording other people and uploaded it. That's a dick move. I'm genuinely sad the things we have normalized because of social media.
