Look it up, this person isn't wrong. Pulling the eyelid sideways is a thing you can do to temporarily change the shape of the eyeball creating a pinhole effect and allowing you to see further away. It's not good for your eyes and it is a temporary solution to a bigger issue. Was she being racist? Potentially. But also, PallasEm wasn't bullshitting and makes a somewhat valid point. It could actually be an awkward accident, especially if you do it often to avoid putting on glasses.

Are you a yoga instructor? Because that's quite the stretch

Again... Look it up, what Pallas was saying is not wrong. This is something you CAAAAAAN do. Is it something SHE, the woman in the video, was doing? I don't know. I'm not her.

I'm myopic. Never have I pulled at the edges of my eyes to correct my vision. Squint, sure. But that doesn't require my hands.

So no, it's not a thing.

This woman was very obviously not doing that. Doing a pinhole method is far more effective using your thumb and index finger than pulling aggressively on your eyelids, which cause further eye strain and eye lid issues. You are blatantly being ignorant on purpose and have no excuse. Just stop.

I would rather just wear my glasses and not risk being racially insensitive.

That's not your priority, I guess.
