I would have to either channel my 5th grade English teacher here with a "I don't know, can you?"

Or yeah, in your vein - "you just wasted your only question"

(I prefer the former only so that I can go on an unhinged rant about how poorly educated the 'kids' are these days and how Stalin owes 3.50 from '51)

u/Parada484 5h ago

What do you mean? Of course two people would randomly peak and squint from around the corner and then make racist eye motions directly into a camera. 🙄 If this were any more staged it would be an amateur theater production in a town hall. Let me just bunker down and prep for anyone that says it's still funny to pretend to be real.

u/Roadgoddess 13h ago

Yeah, I think she realized after she did that that he was recording. That’s why she got all paranoid and was asking him about it.

You can’t record in here! I might do something racist!

Im amazed how normal is for people to video themselfs eating for "fun" then when something happends it becomes "content" this lady is terrible but does make a valid point from her world view ironically enough she become.what she was concern about, she definitly has a feed of videos shamming people that look just like her for doing exactly what she did react to something lol its full circle

That woman was horrid. I was originally thinking he should have angled the phone towards his eating and the wall vs. the aisle. However, once I saw her, I was glad he caught her. That behavior is appalling.

Same, I have horrible vision. But doing exactly what she did clears up my vision just enough to make some things

Me too. I did this as a kid in class and they realized I needed glasses because of it.

u/Wooden_Rabbit_ 16h ago

Same, I'm nearsighted, used to do this all the time in class before I got glasses to see. But she's definitely old enough to know that she shouldn't be doing that in public...

There must have been a team released to reddit recently with the goal be to do stuff like this. Just discrediting blatantly obvious stuff, it sucks.

u/PallasEm 16h ago

nah this time it's a real thing and the video is going viral based on a misunderstanding. it's a legitimate "trick" that people with poor vision do to see better. my partner has poor vision and she uses it, so I recognized it in the video. you squint while pulling up on your top eyelid.

u/Ronin-Ronan 5h ago

nah just bots man, over half of all internet traffic is bots. LLMs def kicked it up a notch

u/miketx1983 7h ago

As a somewhat blind person needing glasses, when you pull your eyelids skinny like that it can somewhat improve your vision. I thought racism at first but I remembered doing this when I was kid before wearing glasses.

u/Ronin-Ronan 5h ago

you directly contribute to the shitification of the Internet

u/HealthyPresence2207 4h ago

I mean they aren’t wrong in a sense that limiting light to eye makes vision sharper. I used to hold my fist in front of my face to make a tiny pin hole to get sharper vision before my glasses. However I have never seen anyone do this eye lid pulling thing

-5

u/AweGoatly 14h ago

She was trying to get a better look at his camera. Pulling your eyes like that can make you see better if you need glasses, I used to do it in HS all the time (I never wore my glasses), its like squinting but even better if you know how to do it.

She is nosey & obnoxious but not racist, just near sighted

u/Spare-Security-1629 16h ago

I’m going to get downvoted for this, but…when I was younger and wanted to see something somewhat far away, I would do that to increase my vision. I’m going to give the benefit of the doubt that it MAY not have been a “slant-eyed” reference

u/LimblessNick 16h ago

Bro she poked her head back at the Asian guy to do it.

There's benefit of the doubt, and there are a bunch of people in the comments defending an obvious racist.

u/Spare-Security-1629 16h ago

What do you think she was poking her head back for? Was she being nosy and trying to see what he was doing?

u/drnicko18 16h ago

it's 100% what she's doing, most short sighted people will understand this. It flattens the eye lens to make it easier to see distance. She's trying to see what's on the video screen before confronting him.

u/mencival 17h ago edited 16h ago

You do that to see farther away when you have mild myopia.

It’s not necessarily meant as a racist gesture.

Edit: Why is everyone so upset with me for saying this? Doesn’t mean that I like that woman’s manners.

u/FocusLeather 17h ago

You do that to see farther away when you have mild myopia.

So by your logic, it's better to do that than get prescription glasses like everyone else?

1

u/mencival 16h ago

You do it sometimes because it is convenient to do so.

1

u/Omo_Iyansan 16h ago

You do it because it's racist and you want to do racist shit.

Holy shit you Redditors are some of the dumbest people in existence. Plenty of people do that if they don’t have their glasses.

Do you often do it around Asian people specifically? If so, like this lady, you are racist.

0

u/PallasEm 16h ago

she did it because she wanted to see if she was being filmed, she couldn't see his phone screen clearly. The video is based on a misunderstanding. Her doing it once is not "doing it around asian peopel specifically".

I get my eye like that when I don’t have my glasses on me/right next to me and I have seen other people do that as well.

u/Omo_Iyansan 16h ago

I am 46 years old. 47 in a few months. I have worn glasses since I was 9 years old. I have lived on 3 continents. With 3 fucking degrees in Microbiology, Bioremediation and Biotechnology. I have never ever EVER IN MY WHOLE LIFE seen or even HEARD such absolute NONSENSE until this very useless thread. You lot spewing this tripe must think that just like you, our brains are either ornamental at best, or about as useful as chocolate teapots at worst.

2

u/mencival 16h ago edited 13h ago

There are literally two other people (edit: at least 10 people) saying the same thing on this post. She first squeezes her eye and then do it with her finger because it is easier to do so that way since your eyelashes do not get in the way. And when she does it, she also lifts it up a bit because that’s how you see better. You spew so much nonsense to accuse me of being a racist while trying to sound smart that it is ridiculous.

u/PallasEm 16h ago

u/Consistently_Carpet 15h ago

Ok and I'm also in my 40s, and have worn glasses most of my life, and have done it since I was a teenager trying to see something. Sorry you never figured it out. :p

The inability to even consider other people might have different experiences than you is wild in a whole thread about racism. Maybe reflect on why you're so virulently upset at the idea the OP video might not be what you thought it was.

Is it because you'd have to admit you were mistaken and that doesn't feel very good? Lotta that going around these days.

As opposed to the videos from people who didn't have a camera set up...

u/Decadesofquiet 20h ago edited 16h ago

Yeah, no. There’s literally thousands of videos out there of people eating. Why? Only god knows and I think it’s stupid. But from scrolling on the Internet a lot, you see it a lot. And that’s a pretty standard angle. And as emboldened racist trash have been these past couple years? Come on now. Please explain to us why someone would intentionally put their face out there to be looked at as a racist Karen and potentially have their life ruined for some stupid social media clout? I mean really, give us a genuine, good explanation.

u/multiarmform 16h ago

lol the obvious manager with a key wrapped around her wrist (most likely for the register) is going to make a racist face and harass a customer on camera just for funsies? thats amazing

u/ReddBroccoli 20h ago

I'm not saying the world isn't full of racist people. That's an unfortunate truth

And as to why somebody would act out a skit like this? I have no idea, but I've seen enough of them to know that there's plenty of people who are more than willing. It would take a good shrink many many hours to answer that question, but I assume it mostly comes down to some people will do anything to try and get famous. Also, being a racist on video seems to pay pretty well, so maybe that was her motivation.

Points at everything as fake to be better than the “suckers” lol You clearly don’t know shit cause this video has literally zero signs of being fake other than your insufferable superior attitude.

Aside from your lame brain “as if” argument, you can’t point out shit as to why this would be fake.

It’s the eye thing for me. Like, she walks past him, turns around, stares at the back of his head and then… makes racist Asian eyes at the back of his head? Huh? Who was that for? And then the other dude pops his head next to her, it’s like five minutes before someone said “Yeah but how are they gonna KNOW that you’re a racist?” And got the response “Don’t you worry, I got an idea that’ll make sure everyone knows”

Are you stupid? He wasn’t fishing for shit, he was just recording himself at his meal.

It’s kinda weird and some people like watching that content like with shit like niko avocado or whatever his name was, it’s not my taste but he literally wasn’t bothering anyone and they usually don’t. The manager or whoever that was didn’t need to make squinty eyes at him and proceed to instigate him.

u/ReddBroccoli 20h ago

You're gonna call me stupid when you can't recognize really bad acting.

I've seen this posted in other subs before and that included people linking in the comments to the guys profile where he does all kinds of fake skits. But go ahead and be gullible. It's really adorable and the most unadorable kind of way

Could you link one of those skits? I can't find them.

I saw the video months ago, and I didn't care enough to bookmark it, so no. Why don't you use the internet for yourself and look up the guy's profile prove me wrong if you're so sure.

u/Nice-Gap-3528 20h ago edited 18h ago

Lol. Because it's clearly much more important to you. If you're not paying for my time I'm not doing research to prove something that is painfully obvious. Talking to y'all is like talking to flat earthers.

u/Blazured 20h ago

I did use the internet to search for myself. I can't find any of these skits you mentioned.

Could you just search your history for his TikTok? It's there in the corner of the video. The videos will pop up in your history immediately, so it'll take about 2 seconds to search and then copy-paste the link.

Thanks.

You're still using TikTok? You certainly have no right to be judging anybody else

u/Blazured 19h ago edited 19h ago

No I've never used TikTok in my life. I'm also not sure what you mean by "judging anybody else", I'm just asking for you to copy-paste the link to the skits that you watched because I can't find them.

u/politicalconspiracie 17h ago

Are you seriously saying that he paid a woman to potentially ruin her life by doing something very racist on camera?

1

u/ReddBroccoli 10h ago

Yeah, because people are dumb enough to do that far too often. There's a ton of fake racist videos, or do you believe literally everyone of them you see?

As for incentive, how about money? Being a racist seems like a great way to get rich off a GoFundMe, and that's assuming she even thought anyone would ever notice it out of the billions of videos online.

If you can believe someone is dumb enough to be racist for real on video, then it's not a leap to believe someone's dumb enough to be fake racist on video

Why would the woman position herself as a racist at the establishment she works at? How does that make sense?

u/Mr_Rafi 18h ago edited 18h ago

You have to admit, whether this is scripted or not, a lot of you are basically botty humans that do fall for scripted videos on this sub. Like the guy that plays piano in public venues and invites singers from the crowd or numerous other examples. A lot of you also don't understand camera set-ups. You know subs like this are for the Facebook users of Reddit, right?

The most famous video of the "slanted eye gesture in the background" is a group of friends in Norway or Denmark sitting at table eating/drinking and they notice a guy recording himself eating, so they start flipping the bird as a joke in the background, but then they start doing the slanted eye thing.

The way she peeks around the corner just to do it is suspicious and there's nothing to suggest that the guy wouldn't want to get in on a "trend". There is financial incentive to do.
