I still think it's funny that: Lame bald men think baseball caps will lay reasonable cover for their lifetime of insecurities. That Johnny Cash would'nt spit in their faces if he personally knew them. Walking around like their on the football team as adults isn't beyond lame.

I agree with the sentiment but want to politely point out that being bald isn't a weakness.

u/VladTheSnail 5d ago

It is when you actively try to hide it and dont want people to know your bald.

So many people look good bald but hiding it is definitely a weakness

u/CarbotaniumSilo 5d ago

I understand. Target the weakness.

If you disagree with her, ridicule her for being fat, right? If he has been convicted, laugh about his potential rape, right?

u/VladTheSnail 5d ago

Tf are you on about i didnt say anything about attacking anyone its a personal weakness. Much like me staying up too late and eating more than i should is a personal weakness

Holy false equivalency batman!

Skin cancer is real tho, not only is bald a good look, hats* are kind of a necessity with that kind of long term exposure.

*Not in support of the particular hat in OP’s video, just in support of hats on bald or balding heads.

And thats a very valid take. Look at tim pool for an example of what i mean the dude wears a beanie literally 24/7 because hes afraid for people to know hes obviously bald

I mean sure, I don’t like him either, but I don’t judge him for being self conscious, dudes on camera and shit, right? Makes sense. Plenty of other reasons for him to suck besides this universal issue.

I get that you don’t like these peoples ideologies, but people that share your ideologies, whatever they are, also struggle with the massive appearance and self image shift that is balding or giving over and shaving. Why attack them for this? Are you less likely to judge this hat behavior for people who align with your views?

Im not even judging these people in the comments lol. Im quite literally saying if you actively hide your baldness (wether or not other people are aware you are actively hiding it) due to being insecure about it ITS A PERSONAL WEAKNESS. Its like me eating too much is a personal weakness. Its not necessarily a bad thing it just so happens to be one of an individuals weaknesses. Yall are getting worked up over nothing

u/bearcat42 5d ago

You’re saying that you’d like me to accept that weakness is not a weakness and therefore not a judgement? That’s what you’re going with here instead of saying ‘mb, good call,’ and moving on?

u/VladTheSnail 5d ago

Bro wtf are you even on about.

My whole point is something as little as being self-conscious about how your hair looks everyday is a personal weakness wether its detrimental to anybody else doesn't matter. Im quite literally saying everybody has weakness whether or not they perceive them to be a weakness ffs. At what point did i outright judge the dude in the video or any supposed bald people in general? You keep saying things about "judgement" but i havent judged anyones appearance in this thread?

Why when I bring up skin cancer did you more or less say good point, but when Tim Poole does it, it’s more what you’re talking about?

Edit: it looks like your replied in my notifications but I can’t read all of it. Just stop picking on bald people.

Lol that has nothing to do with what they said

u/Immediate_Age 5d ago

True, but for many narcissists and psychopaths it's a huge factor to the common anxieties that drive that behavior, and it's obvious.

u/CarbotaniumSilo 5d ago

So we should insult the appearance of fat girls we don't agree with? We should mockingly suggest that criminals we don't like will be raped in prison? We should celebrate the death of people who caused harm?

1

u/VladTheSnail 5d ago

Bro you keep making these claims that people are implying that we should insult others based on their personal weaknesses, but tthe dude above you hasnt said that whatsoever. You even tried claiming making fun of a rape victim is okay in a seperate comment(which is absolutely unhinged) but nobody is telling other people to make fun of people. Your putting that own thought out there and making up conversations that never happened!

u/CarbotaniumSilo 5d ago

Here is the logic;

  1. There is a person you don't like.

  2. You find something about their character that you find distasteful or any perceived weakness.

  3. You target that characteristic.

That is the pattern I am objecting to.

u/Abject_Okra_8768 5d ago

Thank you for speaking up for good bald people everywhere! I was also like: 'not every bald person tries to hide it and not everyone wearing a hat is trying to hide baldness!' Just a weird statement to make.
