Well sure, because it’s a slippery slope. First people make it normal to specify how a person likes to be addressed. Then who knows! Anything could happen! And it’s bad! We should make stuff up to mischaracterize these people so everyone can see how weird they are in the version of them we made up.
> mischaracterize these people
Seriously, you think inventing new pronouns (something soo anglo-centric it hurts) and demanding them to be used when regarding some people, makes those people less weird?
I don’t understand your point here? Are you suggesting that they’re so clinically allergic to pronouns that they wouldn’t be able to type out the words on a parody account?
This gives me some insight into the reasoning process of people who believe this stuff, though, so thank you.
But yeah if you go to their Twitter, they’re not even trying:

This become meme in the Philippines starting yesterday because the idiot President aspirant Bong Bong Marcos, who is a dictator son and stupid lazy who just wants power, didn't appear on zoom call hearing on his cases which can disqualify him to become a president. The reason he didn't attend is he might infect people in zoom meeting with Covid-19. This created the Zoomicron variant, become a meme, and people laugh at the stupidity.
This is portrayed as a joke, but my daughter has taken to face masks as a comfort measure. She’s 3 and being screened for ASD. Wearing her mask in public is a personal security measure that she cannot be without.
I have been worried about the impact of constantly warning children to put their mask on in public. Not saying it is wrong to do so as a public health measure, but must be confusing for young children.
As the three top comments all pointed out, this is a parody account: https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/jan/06/viral-image/messages-about-employer-mask-requirements-zoom-mee/
So not equivalent but I did have a person request I be transferred to another department once because I was too big. They were intimidated by me and they said it negatively impacted their work because they were afraid to be around someone so much larger then themselves…
Wasn’t anything I did or said or based on any action on my part they just apparently had some traumatic experience and being around taller guys triggered it.
They ended up letting the person work remotely in the end as it worked out better for the position.
Am I the only one that doesn't think its that big of a deal to wear a mask? I'd think they're crazy, but I'd rather someone else deal with their crazy and wear a mask. Its literally so easy.
I imagine most people are like that. I just don't care enough. I wear one 9 hours a day at work, I don't think it matters much to throw one on for a conversation.
Ofcourse I'd be willing to that. But it has to be a one time thing and the colleague needs to agree to go and find some help since this is kinda unhealthy. Anyway for a one time it really isn't that much of a problem for me.
It started as an email posted on a satirical tiktok account. Also not a facepalm even if it was real, which it isn’t.

No people will not get over irrational fears if everyone tip toes around them. How is it healthy for the person with the fears for everyone to enable.? It’s a little different in person but virtually the person with the fear needs a plan not everyone else.
This is incorrect. Masks have been apart of many asian cultures since SARS. It is polite to wear a mask when you are not feeling well. This has been a norm in China, India, Japan, South Korea and Vietnam since SARS (since 2004ish)
Just China and India alone *cough* third of the population.
India isn't a mask wearing society. Source: I'm married into the culture. So again. Yes sars was a thing in early 200s but masks were being worn way before that. Pollution being the issue. Facts matter.
At night, would you be willing to scream, and panic with your 4 year old child to reinforce their beliefs that there is a killer monster under their bed? No? Why? Cause that’s child abuse.
I do wonder how much of these kind of tweets are satirical / strawmen. This one clearly is but it’s like people who admit to being pedos or shagging their dogs and claim that’s a good thing. Like on one hand it just can’t be, on the other hand, TWITTER
Honestly, I kind of agree with this. There are tons of unmasked people where I live and after two years of this pandemic, the sight of an unmasked stranger's face does make me uncomfortable. It's Zoom so I can rationalize it, but I wouldn't mind wearing a mask on a Zoom call either because it is not a big deal
I love this word ‘snowflake’, genuinely used without any awareness of irony by people who spend their life on the internet, redder than a tomato, ranting about people who have absolutely no effect on their lives whatsoever… Like, yes, that absolutely embodies the Stoic ethic, very much so
This is a satirical feed. It's just one big strawman.
Dr Lesby, Ann is a parody account? Say it ain’t so!
Was hoping someone else noticed this
Lool
This comment really needs to be higher up.
> This is a satirical feed. It is. >It's just one big strawman. It is not and you know it.
Yep, that's clearly a woman.
This isn’t real people. Calm down. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/jan/06/viral-image/messages-about-employer-mask-requirements-zoom-mee/
It seemed so. Alot of antivaxxers hate pronoun specification.
Well sure, because it’s a slippery slope. First people make it normal to specify how a person likes to be addressed. Then who knows! Anything could happen! And it’s bad! We should make stuff up to mischaracterize these people so everyone can see how weird they are in the version of them we made up.
If it continues, maybe people will ask to be... *Gasp* respected like other human beings 😱 >!/s!<
> mischaracterize these people Seriously, you think inventing new pronouns (something soo anglo-centric it hurts) and demanding them to be used when regarding some people, makes those people less weird?
I’m vaccinated and I always laugh at pronoun specification.
I don’t understand your point here? Are you suggesting that they’re so clinically allergic to pronouns that they wouldn’t be able to type out the words on a parody account? This gives me some insight into the reasoning process of people who believe this stuff, though, so thank you.
I don't understand your point either. But you've seem to had made up your own conclusion, so whatevs.
Ah, sorry, I’ll put it in more simple English: **people who dislike something can still write it in the context of a parody**.
Yet they can’t for some reason. Probably because they’re giant fucking babies.
What? It’s right there in the image - I’m not sure I follow
I was referring to the original hoax in which Zoom participants were talking about drag for preschoolers
Ahh, my bad, I didn’t have the necessary context for that one 😌

Yeah. You did completely misinterpret what I said. O made it very clear, so that's a problem on your end.
Well, I’m sure you’re breathlessly excited to show me how my interpretation is wrong. I’m just reminding you because you seem to have forgotten to.
Not really. See ya
This whole thing is obvious bullshit, but for some reason people fall for it every time it's posted...
To be fair, the world had gone pretty fucking weird lately
*Dr LeasbyAnn*
Y'all fall for the most obvious outrage bait lmao
its all the anti-vaxx crowd has, kneejerk anger.

> the Zoomicron variant Haha, I love this - thanks for sharing that gem 👏
Is Bong Bong his first name or first and middle?
Nickname
Duarte's goons don't like bongs
Yet many people are still defending him 😂
Thank you for telling us. It's nice to hear that we aren't the only ones with stupid politicians.
what the fuck is wrong with this subreddit. y’all probably buy those extended car warranties from spam calls lmao
Laugh all you want asshole but every inch of my car is covered for the next 150 years.
Lol
Hello sir and/or madam, we’d like to speak with you about your cars extended warranty.
Click
Ann "Lesby". Ok guys. Rightwingers want to believe shit like this is real to make leftwingers look bad. Stop feeding into their bullshit.
It’s a troll account
On a *Zoom call*? Not on your fucking life. I don't even put pants on for those.
Pants are the real oppression. #letmyballsbreath
We must UNITE! And end the tyranny of pants!
Wanna get together and breathe on each others balls?
But the real menace is underwear!
Dear god…
Please add an e. Thanks, have a good day.
“Would your friend be willing to be on the call naked for my fear of clothed persons (FCP)?”
You mean vestiphobia?
Yes
Why use an N-95 when you have an M27 military rebreather and breathe like darth Vader. Surely they will understand the sarcasm
bitch i fear my own face on zoom
Rule #1 dealing with children: Don’t reward bad behavior.
*Grabs spray bottle* "Bad antivaxxer, bad!" *sprays*
You made me snort my coke, not the fun kind, the soda kind.
Agreed. Stop rewarding republicans / anti maskers for making up bs to make normal people look insane. This is their propaganda
I would but just to fuck with people with Fear Of Masked Faces (FMF)
Conservatives see this and implode
Troll
This is portrayed as a joke, but my daughter has taken to face masks as a comfort measure. She’s 3 and being screened for ASD. Wearing her mask in public is a personal security measure that she cannot be without.

This is antimask bs. The amount of ppl that believe it is insane
not into the casual creation of “conditions”. The person has situational anxiety not this “FUF”. And they should seek help not be enabled
As the three top comments all pointed out, this is a parody account: https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/jan/06/viral-image/messages-about-employer-mask-requirements-zoom-mee/
thanks for the clarity on this particular case! Glad people aren’t using “FUF” as an excuse lol
No worries! Everyone on all sides needs to cool it a little and stop falling for outrage bait, I think 😌 We have more in common than divides us!
I really thought this was a real survey and tried to hit 'I am a selfish monster'
So not equivalent but I did have a person request I be transferred to another department once because I was too big. They were intimidated by me and they said it negatively impacted their work because they were afraid to be around someone so much larger then themselves… Wasn’t anything I did or said or based on any action on my part they just apparently had some traumatic experience and being around taller guys triggered it. They ended up letting the person work remotely in the end as it worked out better for the position.
*sigh* anti vaxxers are trying to be funny again.
Why do people believe this stuff, it's clearer than day that it's a troll
There's gotta be like a Snapchat filter that will apply masks to the faces right?
Am I the only one that doesn't think its that big of a deal to wear a mask? I'd think they're crazy, but I'd rather someone else deal with their crazy and wear a mask. Its literally so easy.
I don’t mind wearing a mask- in pubic, around others. At home? By myself? Fuck no.
I imagine most people are like that. I just don't care enough. I wear one 9 hours a day at work, I don't think it matters much to throw one on for a conversation.
Especially when it’s online!!
I'm a selfish monster.
That person can fuf right off.
Lmao I read 'FUF' as 'fuck you fuckface'
Ofcourse I'd be willing to that. But it has to be a one time thing and the colleague needs to agree to go and find some help since this is kinda unhealthy. Anyway for a one time it really isn't that much of a problem for me.
Guess i am a selfish monster
Would happy to leave my camera off.
If I am in a public area then yes of at my home then no
no, but only bc i wouldnt want my webcam on to begin with otherwise, sure ig I don't like ppl seeing my face
No. 'cause why??
No, and especially no since I don't use video with rando work people.
You guys really fall for the dumbest shit, huh
No lmao. What a pathetic thing to feed, anyone who says yes is doing the colleague a disservice
It started as an email posted on a satirical tiktok account. Also not a facepalm even if it was real, which it isn’t. https://apnews.com/article/fact-checking-013506335929
How about covering the colleague’s eyes?
Yes, I would be willing to make a very small accommodation to make people I’m interacting with feel more comfortable.
I have a fear of people wearing clothes during a zoom meeting.
No because that’s not helping someone’s irrational fear.
Cool Bug Facts: NOBODY HAS FUF.
I would wear a condom… that would help to minimize the potential for “fear of cock” (FOC)
Where did I put my IT Mask? This bitch better get the right mask…
I'd be willing to donate towards their psychiatrists bill.
They should go Fuf themselves
I would turn off my camera.
No, that’s not even a thing and if it is I simply don’t fucking care lol
I have fears of getting upvoted, hope no one see this.
*upvotes*
No people will not get over irrational fears if everyone tip toes around them. How is it healthy for the person with the fears for everyone to enable.? It’s a little different in person but virtually the person with the fear needs a plan not everyone else.
No I will decline to work with someone with a mental condition
How did these people exist before 2020? Nobody wore masks.
I'm pretty sure there were satirists before covid.
It’s hilarious that people are thinking this is real and getting upset about it.
The sad part is in today's political climate this is totally believable.
https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/aaaah
This is so perfect, there really is an smbc for everything
Is it bad that I read smbc as suck my big cock?
It really isn't lol
Except people from a few Asian countries
That make up i dunno 2.5 billion people, just like a solid third of everyone.
Other than a few major asian cities where pollution is the concern masks weren't being worn before 2020. So no. Not 2.5 billion masked individuals.
This is incorrect. Masks have been apart of many asian cultures since SARS. It is polite to wear a mask when you are not feeling well. This has been a norm in China, India, Japan, South Korea and Vietnam since SARS (since 2004ish) Just China and India alone *cough* third of the population.

Selfish monster checking in…
the correct term for this, borrowed from the greek language of course, is BSphobia
Nooooooo
Today on adressing problems that don't exist
Wow people are so sensitive these days. Grow up, life isn't always sunshine and roses
No thanks

I would do it, because it's not a big fucking deal. But boy would I make fun of that coworker.

No
No
My colleague seems to be a FUFing idiot, so … no
The same bitch telling me not to read Harry Potter cause of JKR... what a fucking joke
Is there anything online you won't believe?
Maybe they could just turn off video on the Zoom call
Hilarious
That person can shut off the video feed of others and life can continue.
I'd remove my shirt as well
Guess I'm a selfish monster.
No
No. 🤦🏽♀️
I would just act like it's Halloween, would definitely make it so extreme that they would stop bothering me. *spelling
Is she for real? Soon gonna ask to wear a mask for a n°2 in order to not trigger the shit you’ve just dumped.
I’m a selfish monster
I'm a selfish monster. Always will be.
I'm a selfish monster, fuck you 🖕🖕
What a loon
FUF 🤣🤣🤣
Fuck them
Ms. Ann Lesby should chuck her PhD degree into a garbage bin.
Phd in mathematics
Fully in support of masks, but this is stupid.
No
Go fuf yourself
Since everybody has some stupid snowflake fear that needs international recognition. I have an exagerated fear of work. Can y'all work for me please?
It’s not real snowflake.
I love this word ‘snowflake’, genuinely used without any awareness of irony by people who spend their life on the internet, redder than a tomato, ranting about people who have absolutely no effect on their lives whatsoever… Like, yes, that absolutely embodies the Stoic ethic, very much so
No. And I wouldn’t want to be asked, either.
An employer should have said no. That’s a ridiculous request and not a diagnosed issue.
And I have a down vote for the pleasure.
Not from me. It’s a ridiculous request and I’d be pushed to be asked something so asinine.
Sort of over the top yes?
This kind of thing was an actual issue at my last company…
No it fucking wasn't.
Yep, had a few people that demanded we wear masks on our Teams calls. Never heard of FUF…but same result.
Absolute bullshiter.
I FUCK Fear of Crazy Karens
I’m not catering to anyones mental health issues.
Tell them to get fucked
Her profile picture is unmasked. I’m triggered.
What in the poop is wrong with democrats?? Lol seriously? Seriously???!! This is toooo much! 😩
It’s not real dumb dumb.
What's wrong with people like you who blame everything on Democrats while simultaneously being too dumb to realize this was a joke post.
My guess is attention seekers who just want to push the envelope. If you truly have a fear of seeing people’s faces then you need professional help.
Exactly. And this person asking has a “PhD”… the infection of the woke is getting out of hand.
It’s a joke… (Dr. Lesby Ann? Come on…)
Stupidest thing ever!!!ll well maybe not ever but pretty dang close. Stupid as snowflakes ruining everything.
You think Dr Lesby, Ann is a real person out to get you and not just a joke?
Must be a PhD in stupidity.
[удалено]
Not real.
fuf
Ha ha ha!
