What a bunch of misanthropes. If you want silence wear earplugs.

I like to live in the world with people and people loooove music. And they love their family going on with gossip. And animal videos. And cartoons and soap operas. And people talking about the love of god. They love watching baseball. Etc.

The one time I can ever recall being annoyed was some guy watching video about covid conspiracies. I thought about arguing with him but I just got up and moved to another part of the train stop.

People's speakers aren't that good, you can easily escape the sound by moving if it is so bothersome. Or, learn to enjoy the company of people who differ from you rather than pretending there is some virtue in being a narrow minded jerk. Life is better.

You're what's wrong with the world.

A chill person who is motivated to get along with others so we can all live in peace. :) Yup a real scourge over here.

Except you're not getting along with others, but instead ascribing negative traits (i.e. disagreeableness) to people who may have different neurobiology, instead of having empathy to try to understand how they may experience sensory input differently than you do.

Misophonia, PTSD, autism, ADHD, hypervigilance, and more. There are lots of reasons that loud videos on a phone in a public space can wreck somebody else's day that they have no control over. Please have some empathy.

I love music. That doesn't mean I'm going to love the music you're listening to. Or want to hear it right then even if I do.

Am I going to want to hear someone playing upbeat ska after I just found out my mother died? No, I'm not.

Basic courtesy for others goes a long way.
