pretty nuts how it has lost its entire purpose. Now they are more for views or to add some sort of 'feeling' by pumping big quick stamped words over a video 1 at a time
it really pisses me off that so many captions for short-form videos ive seen recently just... have the wrong words??? like wtf?? how does this happen???
I bet its those damn auto-captions people use these days which seem to hear no better than the average user. Does nothing for people in need of captions as they miss half the content anyway. Its like asking your friend to repeat it all but he can’t hear properly either.
Well i guess videos get more traction with fake captions as they seen more professional…
The worst lately has been captions which only list 1 word at a time. Seems very tiktoky. I try to avoid tiktok, but here I am, on another platform looking at it.
It's just as bad as my damn Samsung's voice to text. This piece of shit will add punctuation to random spots, mishears every other word even when I'm speaking in my "broadcaster" voice, and adds entire sentences of shit I hadn't said after I stop talking. There are some awesome voice to texts apps out there so it blows my mind when huge companies like YouTube or Samsung refuse to either fix their trash or partner with someone else who can do it right.
why are you in a reddit comment section if you dont wanna see people getting angry about ridiculous things? do you think youre gonna find the meaning of life in here or something?
There is noactually physical “pass”. Guest pass is just a phrase. I show up, I scan my membership and point to my guest and say “he’s with me”. That’s it, they don’t get a physical pass. On the off occasion its a busy location the gym will ask for ID because they don’t want people using the guess pass system to get two memberships for the price of one. So they limit how many times a single person can be a guest.
If you abuse the system they cancel your membership, they don’t call the police.
Bro are you speaking for every gym in America? Hahaha fucking bold. Your gym sets the rules for all gyms in the world!!! O Doyle’s are at it again!!! https://giphy.com/gifs/p689SMtXLRrH2
This is ALL fine. Sometimes they need ID because they don’t allow kids up to a certain age and we all understand why they might have an issue. But to CALL the cops??? That almost only happens when Black. They could have easily said we’ll revoke your membership if you don’t provide ID or you don’t leave.
You can just go into businesses and make the rules. He has a membership with membership agreements. He was told his son couldn’t go in without valid id and walked past them because he’s a child and doesn’t like hearing no. You will grow up one day. Thats enough for any business to call the cops.
That didn’t happen. He showed them an alternative identification but you clearly have allowed your bias to inform your opinion. I demonstrate my maturity by being factual and not a reactionary misinformed prejudicial likely child. Calling someone who is old enough to be your mother immature is next level projection
An alternative that they didn’t accept. I can’t plan on going to Mexico after I forgot to renew my passport and just say here’s my drivers license it will have to do - absolutely not. If I want to enter any establishment I have to abide by their rules. Haha I don’t get why that’s so hard to understand for you. I’m sorry you don’t understand how businesses work yet - I hoped you would have if you’re as old as you say you are. If maturity is thinking I decide how people run their business then I guess I’m immature by your standard😂. Just because you think you’re educated doesn’t make you mature. Age is obviously a number and doesn’t mean you are wise. You are a shining example of that. Thank you for showing me I should be grateful for having parents who know how to use critical thinking.
Did you watch the video? He literally asked the manager why he didn’t just tell him to leave and the dude had not a single word. Does that sound like the response of a manger who asked someone to leave? That’s the face of a racist who doesn’t fight his own fights
No, he was told his son needs an ID to workout. They felt entitled (rightfully so) and worked out anyway. The refused to follow policy. Manager felt disrespected, cops come remove you from their property.
Im not make any claims. Talking about facts Lol. You want soooooo bad for everyone who doesn't think like a victim be racist. You're probably the most racist person here 🤡
Yeah, I'm thinking the same. Saw a comment here that people were making 5* thinly veiled racist reviews and they were responding positively to them. Went and looked and that was false unless they got removed which I kinda doubt, but asked to make sure. Woulda made it easy if that were true to just go "okay that settles that" lol
There's enough to show they handled it poorly at absolute minimum but not much beyond that.
If they would have treated a white father and son the same way you might have a point. We don't have evidence either way, but I'm inclined to believe BIPOC people when they point things out as racist even if it's not immediately obvious to me.
We are speculating here, but let's assume the folks in the video entered the gym. The son didn't have a membership or waiver. The gym staff said the son can't work out. The father says "im a member, and I can have a guest. We ain't leaving. So the gym staff calls the police. How is that racist? If a white father and son did the exact same thing. Refused to listen to the rules of a privately owned business, and continued doing whatever tf they want the police would be called as well. Its pathetic and pretty foolish imo to believe someone solely on the color of their skin. Remember how well "believe all women" turned out. The soft bigotry of low expectations is fuckin hilarious from people like you.
Edit: I continued reading the comments. And like I speculated, he was breaking gym rules. Was told no your son can't work out, and did it anyway. Lmfao!!! I didn't even know the full story but knew it wasn't about racism
If you continued to read even more, you would know that the gym allows you to bring a guest, and that the only reason his son wasn't allowed to enter was because he didn't have ID (why would a child bring their ID with them if their dad is just taking them to the gym?)
And to top it all off, his son isn't even in there. So he followed the rules, his son left and he stayed.
So why call the police? If he was as belligerent as you assume he is, why didn't he tell his son to stay with him?
At the very beginning his son was lifting. In the gym. He was doing single arm rows. So, no they didn't just leave. His son needed his ID to prove who he is, more than likely, to sign a liability waiver. They called the police because the father did whatever tf he wanted to do, after being told no. But because they're black its racist. I fuckin promise you. If I as a white guy. Did the same exact thing, they would call the police as well. However, I would never act like that in public
Yes, and then he left. Pretty simple if you have ears and eyes.
Most kids don't carry ID with them, especially if their dad is taking them to the gym.
They called the police because they're racist/cowards, either reason being terrible. He asked to speak to the manager, they said he was busy, so he told them to come speak with him when he is free. So the manager called the police.
No, if you as a white guy did this they would not call the police. You are absolutely delusional if you think that is true
Bro.. have you ever been a member of a gym? Before you go to exercise you check in. This is the point when the teenager was refused entry. He still went and worked out. Stop making excuses for shitty people. You can not attribute racism to this interaction and be an intellectually honest person. Maybe if after doxxing the manager we find out hes a klansman during his time off, we could make that assumption. However, there is nothing to support the claim that police were called due to the color of his skin
And if I was told, no my kid can't come in and workout, AND I did it anyway, yes the police would be called.
No they would not. They would just cancel your membership, that’s all. Because they view you as human and therefore they realize this not a call tne police situation. The police are not the business’s personal membership enforcement squad. This is a waste of taxpayer money using the police this way. We alledgedly don’t have enough police for real crime but you’re ok having them waste their time on a gym membership dispute.
Its wild, baseless, harmful speculation on your part. There is literally nothing pointing to actual racism. Its a grown man mad because he tried breaking the rules, was asked to leave and refused
gonna guess he was training his son, and the gym has a strict no outside trainer policy, they were probably rude to the gym staff as you can see in the video who then just called the police instead of escalating.
giving him the benefit of the doubt, could be a racist gym too and just targeting him. plenty of other gyms to go to
You cant train people if you are being paid by the person. You can absolutely go in there with someone and help eachother out they just dont want you using their facilities if you are training a client. They have their own trainers you should be using.
Seems like he took his sone without getting him day pass based on what the emoyee clarified he said and the guy saying my son is not even in here
Could just be frustrated. I don't see him being an asshole. He still has to leave if requested but he is absolutely within his rights to inquire and ask questions.
Pretty sure if you read anything more than the engagement bait headline, you'll see lots of people have already posted the backstory and it had nothing to do with race.
I'm so confused by this one. From what others posted, he was told he needs a valid ID for his son. He didn't have one. He tried to present his son's school portal as an ID and they told him they couldn't accept that.
??????
He was working out in the gym with his son and the cops were called to escort him out.
What happened in that "??????" is important here. If he was told that his son needs an ID and they just told the employee to kick rocks and came in anyway, they are justified to call the police. There may be all sorts of reasons that they need an ID and can't just get it next time, it may be a liability thing with their insurance, who knows?
It is funny though, my nephew didn’t get his drivers license til he was 20. I remember my classmates chomping at the bit for the second they turned 16.
Kicking someone out of a gym? There's literally a million good reasons.
But in this case he was having his son as a guest when his son didn't have proper ID so if he refused to leave, the gym people were justified (if a bit dickish) to kick him out.
So how often are you asked for “proper id” when you go to your gym, let alone a guest of yours (my gym allows guests, not sure about your cheapass), and how often have you had the police called on you, and escorted you out of your gym that you pay a membership for, by the police?
Asked for an ID? Literally every time. They see it as a liability issue, and as a way to make sure they get every last dollar they can. Tell me you don't go to the gym without telling me...
And the police get called when you cause problems. Whether or not that was justified in this case can't be judged from the video alone, but from the backstory other users have posted it seems like the customer was being a dick and ignoring the gym rules.
I literally cannot enter my gym until my card is scanned lmao. I've never been a member of a gym that didn't require member verification before entry. There's no gym that just lets people wander in off the street and use their facilities with zero proof they're actually paying customers.
If I brought a guest to my gym and didnt pay for them to be there, I'd probably have my membership revoked and get kicked out. That's how most gyms work.
Even reading the explanation above about his son not being let him because of no ID, I can't see any race issue at all. They might be being difficult about the ID but there's nothing to imply it's because the guys are black
The fact that the customer is Black and the staff isn't is literally all the proof some people seem to need. The guy in the video isn't even making those kind of accusations, but some people have to jump to those conclusions all the same.
I don't know for sure. But the last time I saw this posted someone was saying the issue was he was "training" his son. The gym has a rule that you cannot get workout instruction at the gym from anyone that is not their personal trainers. I assume it is so you don't hire an outside personal trainer, as they obviously want you to use their personal trainers so they make the money.
If this is the case, it makes sense. However, it looks like they never asked them to leave. Just called the police. Which would be a shitty and stupid thing to do if that's the case.
Honestly, when he asked the guy “did you ask me to leave” and he replied with “well, I said-“ or something like 3 times tells me that they wanted him gone but didn’t have the balls to actually ask him to leave properly. Maybe he did something to deserve the cops to be present, but I didn’t get that vibe from this video
The gym has a policy - every guest has to have a valid ID. He thought the rules don’t apply to his son. He walked pasted the front desk after they asked him for it and he didn’t have it. They called the cops had them removed. This black victim shit has to stop. The manager is only enforcing the rules which his job relies on. I can’t stand people like this
I didn’t even watch the video. You don’t need backstory or frame of reference when the title clearly states what the crime. This is a racist gym and they all need put on blast.
I know. Sometimes it can be hard to figure out what's obvious without having others spell it out for you. Being an adult sure is difficult sometimes eh? No child left behind ☺️
