Bicycle bells are to make people aware of your presence, not to tell them to get out of the way.
This is not true everywhere.
If you're biking at the appropriate speed for being near pedestrians, you don't need to alert of your presence because you are no danger.
You only need to alert your presence if you're going faster than what is safe to do, which is being a dick and pedestrians are right to be mad at you.
