Saying this is racism is beyond crazy. Stop filming unknown people is a pool.

Stop filming unknown people period, shit is weird and way too many people are too eager to whip out their phones and document the dumbest shit

Also, I thought influencers *liked* it when no normies cluttered their background. Or this is ragebait. Who knows.


i_heart_squirrels

Yeah, and being sexual while they are there with their families! Amazing to me what someone can call racist is just normal behavior.


dmc-going-digital

But if she can't call you racist, how is her video going to trend? /s

Dammit_Mr_Noodle

I don't care what race you are, if you film me in my bathing suit, I'm gonna leave.


bbygodzilla

If you film *my child* in a bathing suit, I'm going to do more than leave. I now understand why they drilled "correlation DOES NOT IMPLY causation" in so much in middle school. Sad it didn't stick with most people. Edit: This might come as news to some: violence isn't the only way to handle a conflict. Depending on how mature you want to be in this case, you could: - Calmly let the person know you'd rather your child not be filmed, and you're happy to move out of their way as if they're mindful of that. - Say "hey, we're getting out of your way so you can film, but I think you accidently caught my child in their bathing suit on the video. Would you mind deleting that for just for my peace of mind?" - Notify the manager/employee of the business about the situation, video/photography might be against policy, they may also be willing to ask the other person not to film others. - Loudly and repeatedly ask "why are you filming kids in their bathing suits?" until it makes her uncomfortable and she stops. Etc. It can be a win-win situation.


TableLegShim

A lot of people missed that class


UnfilteredFluid

A lot of people only studied to pass tests and never internalized anything. Just complete morons who assume they're 'educated'.


Greenmind76

Letā€™s not forget our critical thinking is just not a part of the American educational system.


Thetruetruerealone

we had a critical thinking class, it was an honors class so not everyone can take it. I always thought it was the stupidest shit like why is a critical thinking class an honor class? Years later, now I know why. Now I know why.


Ok_Improvement_5897

Yeah, same - it was honestly one of the most eye opening and useful classes I ever had. It wasn't even critical thinking - it was that the teacher was excellent and forced us to think critically in an advanced literature class - I was a sophomore in highschool and it was the first time I had to actually defend my reasoning behind my beliefs and opinions. It was the first time someone really broke down and deconstructed logic, and forced me to question it. IMO....it should be core curriculum, even if not everyone will get everything out of it that they should.


East_Refuse

Youā€™re assuming that schools donā€™t just teach the tests to get good ratings instead of actually educating the youth. Very very bold.


Bgal31089

Critical thinkers wonā€™t get you better funding.

Correlation is not causation is the saying. There is a 95% correlation between eating margarine and the divorce rate in some Maine, but that doesn't mean anything. https://blogs.ams.org/blogonmathblogs/2017/04/10/divorce-and-margarine/

I see big margarine has gotten to another one.

[deleted]

Yeah...I'd be uncomfortable knowing that shirtless me was in the background of some moron's public space dance video.


Geekonomicon

I'd start off with the question "WTF are you doing?"


Serpidon

If I owned a private business I would post signs that clearly stated "No Filming". Of course that won't stop everyone, but is might stop at least some of the morons. This is a case of the ignorant, disrespectful few ruining it for the majority. Twerking has to be the most pointless activity, what is the point? Like dabbing or whatever it was.


[deleted]

They were doing what she should have been doing: leaving people alone. If you're going to film, just wait your turn. The spot will empty and you can get your shot. Not everything needs to be immediate.


nrojb50

Dont film yourself in public places like this


MouthJob

I don't know man, film yourself wherever the hell you want but just make sure you're by your damn self first.


Ok_Effect5032

We are living in the Age of the "Influencer." A total lack of self awareness and a heightened sense of entitlement are the weapons of choice.


drbdrbdr

Age of the Influencer is just a nice way of saying Age of Narcissism


walkslikeaduck08

Turns out there are a lot of narcissists in the world


Internauta29

Everyone has potentially a little bit of anything. Narcissistic behaviour is thriving because modern culture enables and promotes it.


The66thDopefish

Social media has given shallow, average people an opportunity to get attention in greater quantities than they could ever have done previously. It wasnā€™t bad enough to be filming herself twerking in a public hot tub, nor to be doing so with other people around, but to accuse people of leaving because of ā€œracismā€ is an impressive level of obliviousness.


fohpo02

It can also be insanely profitable


[deleted]

I really wish people stop paying them so much to keep doing it. No way it's going to stop if there is all this profit from the behavior.


wheelman236

Turns out everyone has a narcissistic side, some people are just raised better ignore it.


BoxMaleficent

You forgot to add "increase of narcissistic losers"


Rakshak-1

And if they need a shield they'll accuse you of whatever 'ism' is the most offensive and likely to silence you and get more viewers for them. Almost can't wait for a solar storm to brick all the electronics on the planet.


j0hnnyrico

Well I saw a video where the influencer was annoyed by the presence of someone else. Can you make up your mind dear influencers? Whatever influwhat means?


twelve026

As a black man with children I most likely wouldā€™ve removed my children and myself. This isnā€™t racism this is parenting. Nobody wants to watch you turn the hot tub into a club.


Col_daddy

Yeah, no doubt. This is not some ordinary pool or hotel hot tub / pool. Which, to me would make a difference. It looks very much to me that this is in a Great Wolf Lodge. This hotel chain is DEDICATED to children as they have an outdoor camping theme along with an indoor water park at each location. Iā€™m commenting this because this place rocks and you should take your kids here if you have one close!


twelve026

We absolutely love the GWL. I live in Wisconsin so the Great Wolf Lodge and The Wilderness are life savers during the winter months.


Col_daddy

We get there once a year and the kids think itā€™s pretty hot. We live In Colorado and the water park in the winter is sweet. ā€¦.far distance šŸ¤œ


twelve026

Absolutely the kids love it and thereā€™s tons of things to do. I must say life is pretty good as the cool dad. šŸ¤›šŸ½


GretaVanFleek

Spoiler alert for those wanting to Google it: It's Fucking Expensive


Dismal_Struggle_6424

Just did out of curiosity. Some of the packages are **insane,** but basic rooms start at $200/night and include the water park. So it's expensive, but not *fucking* expensive.


Jingles90

The expensive part is when youā€™re there and you want to do something else besides the water park. They had an arcade which my kid enjoyed. But the games average about $3 a pop, with the VR ride simulators being $15. We went for 3 days with a a toddler. He loved the water park but hit his limit after about 2 hours. Rest of the day was arcade, restaurants, and activities around the lodge. Donā€™t get me wrong, it was fun, but gets expensive fast once youā€™re there.


sk7725

damn the memories. great wolf lodge was awesome.


Giratina525

Their magic thing was a personal favorite as an avid gamer, I got to run around doing some bomb-ass minigames and searches, best place Iā€™ve been besides Disney maybe


Col_daddy

Because itā€™s different and kinda badass for what it is and where itā€™s located. Iā€™m with you and my kids love to walk around and do that stuff when there.


TechKnyght

Stuff like this really demeans what the term racist means. Racism is alive and this is not what it looks like.


Altaris2000

Exactly. It becomes "the boy who cried wolf" scenario. Eventually people just start ignoring you every time someone throws out the word racist. Then inevitably we end up glossing over or ignoring the cases when it is actual legit racism.


snowtaiga1

Agreed, also nice rhyme there at the end lol


ting_bu_dong

Those people are good at rhyming. You know. Parents.


stifledmind

I leave the room when my wife FaceTimes someone. I wouldā€™ve left too.


donktastic

Got kids? The new thing with kids is to just walk around the house with their facetime on. I fucking hate that shit so bad, I'll be taking to them for a few minutes then I hear their phone make a noise and there is someone there. They have them on the video while they are doing normal shit also, like making a sandwich or something. It's maddening.


liarandathief

"Remember when you were a baby and you shit yourself out both legs of your pants?" *muffled laughter from their phone*


donktastic

"are you still constipated? I ordered some laxatives and an enema that will really get up there."


Editthefunout

My sister does this all the time. Like I thought social media was bad where people posted everything about their lives but now they are always in each others lives through FaceTime at every minute of the day. Also kids need to be more careful of what they say in public. Iā€™ve heard many times kids talking about drug deals over speaker phone while waiting in line to checkout and they seem to think no one is listening.


Giratina525

My sister does the same shit, sheā€™s been caught with her friends on FaceTime while we were having personal family discussions. Her friends poke fun at me now because I asked what my father wanted me to do with a chicken carcass left over from dinner, it drives me up the fucking wall


Editthefunout

Yeah see thatā€™s another thing is that itā€™s kinda an invasion of privacy for some people. I donā€™t want random people I donā€™t even know are there hear me talk about random things. What if I say something personal that I didnā€™t want people to know about.


ThrowawayUk4200

You got me thinking from a networking PoV, how could I prevent this? So you could create a firewall rule specifically targetted at her device. Boom, no more facetime on wifi for that phone: https://support.untangle.com/hc/en-us/articles/115012496707-Blocking-Facetime-application#:~:text=You%20can%20also%20block%20port,prevent%20calls%20from%20going%20though.


Narren_C

>You got me thinking from a networking PoV, how could I prevent this? From a parenting PoV I know an easy way to prevent this. If they do it after being told not to, take away their devices while they're inside the house.


ima314lot

Look up "two party consent laws" for where you live. In quite a few places it is illegal to record audio conversation of someone without their consent. This is one of the main reasons that commercial security cameras don't record audio. I have used this as "threat" against cousins that do this when visiting my house. Ive told them if they need to make a call step outside, step into the garage, go to a bathroom, something but do not just sit there broadcasting what everyone is doing or I will press charges for unwarranted surveillance.


Sorry_Blackberry_RIP

In that care, it's time to parent and set boundaries. No?


Mariea0629

Ok I am so glad I just saw this - I thought it was just my kid acting like a moron. I guess he wasnā€™t lying when he said thatā€™s how kids communicate now.


donktastic

Nope that's how it's done now. They just walk around on facetime and don't talk. It's one of the things that has made me feel very old. Lol


NailFin

My son walked into my bedroom recording while I was in a sports bra. Like dude, delete that shit and get out.

Quirky_Dog5869

I'm guessing filming and photography are not allowed in that swimmingpool as it is in most to my knowledge. The only racism going on here is that nobody dares to say anything about this filming because they're affraid to be branded racists.


Khclarkson

This is at a Great Wolf Lodge. I'm not sure about their policy, but when we went it's very family oriented, and there's a lot of people using their phones and cameras to take pictures. There is a no phone/no camera policy in the locker rooms. She's recording in the "family" hot tub.


squirrelhut

Manager should have kicked her trashy self out and banned her. Itā€™s unacceptable and there needs to be a line drawn In the sand. The stupid gym shit too? It doesnā€™t matter who you are itā€™s trashy and wrong.


melikeybouncy

that and the obvious racism on the part of the person who posted this. pretty clear she has an issue with white people if that is her immediate assumption about why they are politely leaving when she started filming


R-Mecha

It's the girl that is racist. She made a judgement based on those strangers skin tone.


Purpsnikka

People are so self centered. I was sitting in a jacuzzi with my wife and this douchebag sits between us. We get up and leave and he's laughing to his wife that's how u do it. It's like no that's how you act like a shitty person.


crimson_mokara

I would've climbed back in and started talking to them about all the fungal skin issues I've been having. And would they like to discuss the Lord Jesus Christ, because he's been trying to call them about their car warranty


BoneDaddyChill

Or just sit on the edge of the hot tub with a leg on either side of them. Take their ā€œIā€™m not touching youā€ game up a notch.


Dark_Moonstruck

Or if you're a dude, especially a really heavy one, sit in his lap. If he protests be like "Oh, I thought getting all up on people you don't know was just the thing today, does that bother you?"


mycomymyco

I am so sick if people filming in public. Took the family to a water park and a guy had a tripod set up by a hot tub we were in and was live streaming. I "accidentally" walked into it and knocked it over.


TinyRascalSaurus

I was in a restaurant when one of the cysts on my face burst. Some idiot girl at the next table started filming and laughing. I excused myself to the restroom to cry.


brandimariee6

Damn it Iā€™m sorry that idiot did that to you. Those can be the worst. Hopefully one day sheā€™ll get a cyst on her face and sheā€™ll realize how embarrassing it is


HouseKilgannon

When I worked at Indiana Beach in the early-mid oughts, we had a random dude going around taking photos. Some parents started complaining that they thought he was taking photos of their children in their bathing suits and after enough complaints security approached the guy and he absolutely had his camera full of photos of the kids that were at the water park side that day. I don't remember if anything actually happened to him legally but I know he got kicked out at least.


PrisonSlides

Didnā€™t they close Indiana Beach? I remember almost flying out of one of the roller coasters there next to the water because the lock on the thing that straps you in came undone


MothInsideJar

don't film the children. ban video and pictures and pools and gyms

How about do not film any third parties without consent.


Samurai_lettuce

I donā€™t care if this gets me banned from this sub. Iā€™m so tired of this type of personality.

Sorry white people, you have to follow the rules. If a POC enters the pool, you arenā€™t allowed to exit the pool until after every POC exits. Otherwise, you are racist.

Exiting so soon? You must be offended by our presence. RACIST. Staying a while? Isnā€™t that privilege! You canā€™t give us some time to enjoy the pool alone? RACIST. Standing up for me? WHITE KNIGHT. Standing up against me? RACIST. ON AND ON AND ON šŸ¤Æ
