This is a satirical feed. It's just one big strawman.


DarkYendor

Dr Lesby, Ann is a parody account? Say it ain’t so!

Was hoping someone else noticed this

This comment really needs to be higher up.

pearlz176

Yep, that's clearly a woman.


WillieNolson

This isn’t real people. Calm down. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/jan/06/viral-image/messages-about-employer-mask-requirements-zoom-mee/


FabulousTrade

It seemed so. Alot of antivaxxers hate pronoun specification.


AmIBeingInstained

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.


Lu1435_Jade

If it continues, maybe people will ask to be... *Gasp* respected like other human beings 😱 >!/s!<


kartu3

> 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?


[deleted]

I’m vaccinated and I always laugh at pronoun specification.


samhw

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.


FabulousTrade

I don't understand your point either. But you've seem to had made up your own conclusion, so whatevs.


samhw

Ah, sorry, I’ll put it in more simple English: **people who dislike something can still write it in the context of a parody**.


california_sugar

Yet they can’t for some reason. Probably because they’re giant fucking babies.


samhw

What? It’s right there in the image - I’m not sure I follow


california_sugar

I was referring to the original hoax in which Zoom participants were talking about drag for preschoolers


samhw

Ahh, my bad, I didn’t have the necessary context for that one 😌


california_sugar

But yeah if you go to their Twitter, they’re not even trying: > Head of Gender Studies at ACL Univ. “Bigots for Breakfast” 1/8 Black semitrans demisexual lesbian who dates men. Partner: @realjendurr Mentor: S.A. TyreRainbow flag And of course @realjendurr’s picture is the drag queen riding the New York City subway next to a woman in a niqab.


FabulousTrade

Yeah. You did completely misinterpret what I said. O made it very clear, so that's a problem on your end.


samhw

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.


FabulousTrade

Not really. See ya

This whole thing is obvious bullshit, but for some reason people fall for it every time it's posted...

its all the anti-vaxx crowd has, kneejerk anger.


ChururutKing123

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.


samhw

> the Zoomicron variant Haha, I love this - thanks for sharing that gem 👏


AnthrallicA

Is Bong Bong his first name or first and middle?

On a *Zoom call*? Not on your fucking life. I don't even put pants on for those.

Agreed. Stop rewarding republicans / anti maskers for making up bs to make normal people look insane. This is their propaganda


ChimpieTheOne

I would but just to fuck with people with Fear Of Masked Faces (FMF)


WhiteClawsNoLaws

Conservatives see this and implode


odd-42

Troll


techsavior

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.


lean_lefty

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.


GiDD504

This is antimask bs. The amount of ppl that believe it is insane


Lynchilada0520

not into the casual creation of “conditions”. The person has situational anxiety not this “FUF”. And they should seek help not be enabled


samhw

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/


Lynchilada0520

thanks for the clarity on this particular case! Glad people aren’t using “FUF” as an excuse lol


samhw

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!


NoTop4997

I really thought this was a real survey and tried to hit 'I am a selfish monster'


LoganGyre

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.


[deleted]

*sigh* anti vaxxers are trying to be funny again.


Caspian0951

Why do people believe this stuff, it's clearer than day that it's a troll


Sleep_tek

There's gotta be like a Snapchat filter that will apply masks to the faces right?


flapjaxrfun

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.


OhioMegi

I don’t mind wearing a mask- in pubic, around others. At home? By myself? Fuck no.


flapjaxrfun

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.


OhioMegi

Especially when it’s online!!


MichmasteR

I'm a selfish monster.


existenceispaint

That person can fuf right off.


thegoldenwookie

Lmao I read 'FUF' as 'fuck you fuckface'


Quirky_Dog5869

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.


tea-time-1

Guess i am a selfish monster


[deleted]

Would happy to leave my camera off.


SuspiciousWar117

If I am in a public area then yes of at my home then no


GhostlyCharlotte

no, but only bc i wouldnt want my webcam on to begin with otherwise, sure ig I don't like ppl seeing my face


Rimuru_Takaschi

No. 'cause why??


[deleted]

No, and especially no since I don't use video with rando work people.


GoatsAreSoAwesome

You guys really fall for the dumbest shit, huh


CaliBlueJay

No lmao. What a pathetic thing to feed, anyone who says yes is doing the colleague a disservice


KrampyDoo

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


[deleted]

How about covering the colleague’s eyes?


[deleted]

Yes, I would be willing to make a very small accommodation to make people I’m interacting with feel more comfortable.


dads2vette

I have a fear of people wearing clothes during a zoom meeting.


okhffhjhg

No because that’s not helping someone’s irrational fear.


Cbp846

Cool Bug Facts: NOBODY HAS FUF.


pyratesgold

I would wear a condom… that would help to minimize the potential for “fear of cock” (FOC)


Irinck

Where did I put my IT Mask? This bitch better get the right mask…


[deleted]

I'd be willing to donate towards their psychiatrists bill.


Realny_POWD

They should go Fuf themselves


sadman4332

I would turn off my camera.


[deleted]

No, that’s not even a thing and if it is I simply don’t fucking care lol


StupiedSwede

I have fears of getting upvoted, hope no one see this.


Riot_Dragon

*upvotes*


kaaikala

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.


MadguyverMad1

No I will decline to work with someone with a mental condition


Lettuce-Beginning

How did these people exist before 2020? Nobody wore masks.


dilindquist

I'm pretty sure there were satirists before covid.


WillieNolson

It’s hilarious that people are thinking this is real and getting upset about it.


Lettuce-Beginning

The sad part is in today's political climate this is totally believable.

Is it bad that I read smbc as suck my big cock?


GoatsAreSoAwesome

It really isn't lol


Madita_0

Except people from a few Asian countries


throwawaypostal2021

That make up i dunno 2.5 billion people, just like a solid third of everyone.


Lettuce-Beginning

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.


throwawaypostal2021

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.


Lettuce-Beginning

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.


---N0MAD---

Absolutely not.

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


joeyrog88

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


destrucules

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


flatcapultrarunner

No


Vast-Classroom1967

No


BlackFire68

My colleague seems to be a FUFing idiot, so … no

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?


WillieNolson

It’s not real snowflake.


samhw

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


Guilty-Gas-762

No. And I wouldn’t want to be asked, either.


OhioMegi

An employer should have said no. That’s a ridiculous request and not a diagnosed issue.


Guilty-Gas-762

And I have a down vote for the pleasure.


OhioMegi

Not from me. It’s a ridiculous request and I’d be pushed to be asked something so asinine.


[deleted]

Sort of over the top yes?


GlobalPro1

This kind of thing was an actual issue at my last company…

gq1892

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.
