  1. In a rapidly collapsing world ecosystem, fireworks are a no-brainer; something that we should immediately stop doing indefinitely.

  2. Fireworks have to be the thing i hate the most… Nothing triggers me more than this shit.
    (yeah, i know that i’m a privileged white cis guy)

  3. Damn, that isn’t even beautiful anymore, it is just loud and annoying.
    Don’t get me wrong I like fireworks but not like that

  4. I didn’t mind the show, though I couldn’t care less if it goes away. What I minded though is everyone else setting off fireworks till 5 am last night. Is it really the peak entertainment people can think of?

  5. If Fireworks would be noiseless, I‘d be so much happier. I‘m glad for the Feuerverbot here and hope for *once* all idiots show some basic respect. Every bang startles me and NC headphones can‘t drown out all of it.

    And that poor bird in the clip :/

  6. It’s fucked that there’s a tradition to shoot these things into water and other nature, and no tradition to go pick the trash up the day after.

  7. Boycott fireworks. They’re unnecessary (use drones if you want flashy lights), they damage the environment, animals suffer, and with the current dryness it’s even more stupid than usual.
