What else should they have replied? They're not even being clever, their opponent is just really stupid.

Are you the media?

Enough of a red flag to never talk to that person again

Why? Who the hell are you? The government?

What's the context? Was this a covid thing?

These screenshots might shed some more light. Looks like an employee was filmed doing something they shouldn’t by a train spotter.

"Try to do that at an airport and you'll get arrested."

She knows plane spotting at big airports is a pretty common thing too right? Hell, some airports even have a place where it's specifically encouraged. Reagan Intl has a park that was built at the end of the runway for plane spotters.

"I'm the media"

2017, way before covid. Some dude never heard of train-spotting before and was very confused by it.
