Lack of spatial awareness feels almost like an epidemic at the moment. The amount of people that seem to just walk _at_ me is genuinely weird

As George Carlin said "Think about how stupid the average person is. Then remember that half the population is more stupid than that"

You're also one of these idiots. Everyone on Reddit claims everyone else is an idiot.

Example of total idiot: it walked behind a telephone booth near the train station in Kingston Upon Thames. Did a massive piss. How did I know? Because the booth is on a slope and so the pee flowed down the wide pavement onto the road like a pipe suddenly burst. There are public loos in a number of locations but it seemed to find what was convenient.

49.9% of the population is below average intelligence.

At least 99%. I count myself in that percentage at least some of the time.

You could say that only a total idiot wouldn't know it's 'spatial'.

If I was going out of my way to attack half the populace with a public rant I'd come correct

It’s a lower proportion in public than there is among question askers in here.

Why would someone need "special awareness" that seems like you are projecting something you lack onto people. People generally don't care about other people until they need some help or are a threat.

Spacial, not special.
