No worse than shouting into a mobile imo.

There’s far worse things people can and will do regularly on public transport than read out loud. As long as people aren’t being aggressive or getting into anyone’s face then let it go ffs.

It is worse because you can't talk to someone on the phone without making noise. Reading is a silent activity. 

No less annoying. If you can't find somewhere away from people you should be texting.

It's detournement's schtick, defending the indefensible.

Not defending the racist in any way here (or sticking up for Detournement) but that's pish. If I'm sat on a train and someone phones me, I've to either ignore the phone call and text them back or find somewhere quiet on the train to take the call? No chance. If you can't handle someone else having a conversation in your vicinity get off the train and buy a car.

Try that in a quiet carriage for more than "I'll be home by 6." and I'll fucking taser you.

Are you against groups of people talking amongst each other or is it solely phone conversations which drive you to commit GBH?

I've no problem with people talking amongst themselves at a normal volume, it's when you get someone shouting into the phone for half an hour and the whole carriage can only hear half the conversation.
