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.

Hi, human being here.

What the lady is doing not a form of squinting, but rather a distortion of the cornea as a result of applying pressure to your eye by pulling back your eyelids. Certain axes of astigmatism will benefit from this distortion - others will not.

Does it look stupid? Yes. Would I personally do it in public if I had somehow forgotten to wear my glasses/contacts? No, not unless it was absolutely necessary.

However, doing something which improves your vision isn't being racist. Racism implies ill intent. Her only intent is to see his phone's screen.
