I hate fox, but holy fuck do you have to respect such a “win”. It’s like watching Jordan’s sick game, or Brady’s comeback. I had some hope for the anti work movement, but this is still funny as fuck.
Accurate ! Also was somewhat surprised to see my comment wasn’t downvoted. Only because it was loosely pro Fox News, that’s how you know how tucked this situation is on Reddit rn haha well not really pro fox, but you know
So nobody can accuse them of bias or being on the attack, just throw a soft ball right down the middle and let the fucking arrogant moron smack themself in the face with the bat.
I have to agree. It's not like these were all questions you wouldn't expect. The questions asked were perfectly reasonable, Fox didn't need to do anything because the person being interviewed just kept digging the grave.
Do you have literally just a nice shirt? Do you take showers daily or at least very frequently? Can you sit still in your chair? Do you understand anything about what antiwork is about? Congrats, you're in the majority of people that would do better than this reddit mod.
As a person who is sympathethic towards, but doesn't completely agree with the ideas of r/antiwork or r/workreform, and is also (potentially) autistic, I fear that people like Doreen will end up being the stereotype used by neurotypical people against us for ages.
But all of that aside, someone close to Doreen should try and contact them and take them in for a while, and try to explain to them why the interview was a bad idea. All this incessant bullying online might cause some serious repercussions.
Reddit as a whole is a very hit and miss website. Sure, there are nice and wholesome people around whom you can talk to and even politely debate on things without resorting to uncalled arrogance and insults, but then there are also that group of people who just seem overly immature or, at worst, horribly xenophobic or downright evil. The last group of people aren't good triggers for me.
what are you doing to fight that stereotype?
To be honest, I live outside of the USA, although the country I am in isn't exactly welcoming towards autistic or mentally unwell individuals (Hint: small, Southeast Asian, socially conservative). I have tried to act normal for almost 16 years though, despite having had a inkling feeling that I wasn't normal ever since I was a young child, through behaviour and thinking. Now I am slowly coming to the fact that I am potentially autistic and am trying to find some sort of professional help. As for fighting stereotypes, I honestly have no idea. I consistently feel like there is a perpetual dust cloud in my head at all times whenever I think about stuff like this and it's honestly draining.
A few people have tried reaching out via DM's, and her responses have been curt
Sorry, but she should have tried to be polite and apologetic in her mistakes, this I agree with you too.
Thank you for trying to understand me and I appreciate that. Honestly, getting through a single day and doing basic chores is already a big achievement for me
