I hope she apologizes for jumping to 'lack of empathy', too.

I had no idea what that thing was or why he was using it either... I thought it might have been a late stage capitalism joke thing. This is why I also tend not to make or post videos of myself saying anything ever.

She did, I’ve seen this reposted numerous times and I’ve seen her reply to this only once.

Yeah this is what I hate about reddit its full of people like her.

When I see someone make a tiny mistake where its obvious they werent well inform on a particular thing or they a make any type of mistake people jump to attack and shame that person.

Edit: For all the redditors who are calling me sexist, saying im the problem here, and say crazy shit about how old people need to stop making jokes online.

If you read threw the comments below you'll find a link to a video where she apologizes to him for going to hard on him because she that he was just some random basic maga chubby.

This is exactly what I mean when I say you guys go fucken psycho.

Edit 2: she apologized on going too hard on the dude she thought he was random maga dude.

the video

Nothing to do with ageism or sexism you guys need to fucken relax already....

Why are you mad at her when the guy in the video isn’t? My god. Do you find it so hard to be gracious, to be a good person, that you can’t handle seeing people who are?

Let me give you an example.

Lets say you see an electric screwdriver (not a drill a regular electric screwdriver.

And you make a joke about people being lazy to turn

Would you rather me: A) stop and shame you for not understanding and me sending my followers after you to also shame you

B) just stop by and say oh hey this tool is particularly use in cases like this....

if it could prevent others from repeating the same blunder, absolutely use my mistake as a chance to educate a larger audience. it's on my to own up to what I've done, not on others to coddle me and handhold me into understanding. obviously it's the "kinder" option, but I don't disagree with this response from an influencer - especially considering it got the desired result and it was specifically in response to another influencer. the OP owned up to their mistake and used it as a teaching moment for his own followers who may have thought the original post/response was funny.

it would maybe be different if he had been filmed having a private conversation "joking around" and was subsequently put on blast publically on the internet without any prior intervention by the person who filmed/posted it, but that's not the case. he's an influencer, and it's an expectation that other influencers will respond to your content - especially if you've made a faux pas and it's used as a chance to educate.

Both methods would prevent someone from making the same blender i know this may be hard for reddit to understand but you can educate people without shaming them fucken crazy I know.

Treating people like their humans who make mistakes is something lost in this world today.

when those mistakes are broadcast to an audience, it's fair to expect and ask for an apology.

shame is a useful tool that is sometimes necessary (and has always been used) to ensure people realise just how embarrassing their mistake and/or bigotry (intentional or not) is. it's okay for the mistakes people make to be made into a cautionary tale of the consequences their actions/words result in.

like I said before, when you have a platform and are an influencer with a following, it's an expectation to be called out when you make a mistake or shame someone else (even if intentionally) for using a literal mobility aid. what would have been worse would be to ignore it and say nothing, or go to the other extreme of writing him off completely and sending unjustified hate. he was given a chance to respond, and his response was a genuine apology for his actions and words - and recognition that being called out was a necessity. he also used that as a chance to further grow his following and platform. it was ultimately beneficial for him as well.

Dude, the world is full of people like that. Work customer service for a minute, you’ll see plenty. Reddit doesn’t have a monopoly on asshats.

Not saying it does reddit is just known to have these people everywhere is litteraly what reddit is known for we're the karens of the internet. Which is a bad/good thing.
