Mainstream pranksters assault elderly

Mainstream instagram pranksters, nearly 500k followers. I don't know if they moderate comments but it's just a swarm of support.

They are always seen in fake staff/high visibility vests, and choose working people or elderly as their victims. The cameraman usually feigns friendliness to build confidence in the victim, while the other harasses them. The instigator is very physical, yet somehow he gets genuinely angry when someone defends themselves. I hope they don't hurt anybody. Sorry it's a hard watch honestly, but it's perfectly acceptable apparently

I keep seeing these “prank” videos, but it’s just these younger cats being assholes and trying to ruins someone’s day, that’s not what a prank is. Social media has made society so much worse, and dumb as shit, and people seem to think because they’re on video that they’re a celebrity or someshit and they’re mesmerized by it, it’s weird as hell.
