So you consider it to be “everything wrong with humanity” that people can’t just snap their fingers and stop other people from doing things? That one person’s concerns don’t equal another person’s lifestyle change, and that’s the dark side of humanity?

It actually kinda sounds like you’re saying freedom, as a phenomenon, is what’s wrong with humanity.

If you look at it one way, “freedom” is a word for the concept that “A person’s reasons are always legitimate”.

So really, some people claimed legitimate reasons for stopping others from using fireworks, and other people claimed legitimate reasons for saying no thank you and continuing.
