Several other people feel this way and you’re all wrong. Is good food wasted because after you eat it it’s gone? Are vacations stupid because once it’s over nothing has materially changed? No? So why are fireworks pointless simply because they’re temporary?
The major difference between fireworks and those other examples, is that fireworks directly affect others around you. In my city, people go out and buy the big fireworks that are illegal here because they go into the sky and make lots of sparks and they shoot them off in the city. Fireworks majorly affect all the animals in a pretty wide radius. Which is why I hate them, because the people have no respect for how much they are traumatizing the animals or how much they are affecting their neighbors. And don’t forget they are a fire hazard.
This becomes more of an argument about peoples’ irresponsible use of fireworks rather just the use of fireworks at this point.

Sounds like neighbor problem, not a firework one
To be fair, my dog is equally scared of thunder and the jets from a nearby Airforce base. But I agree they’re a pretty unnecessary addition.
