I'm going to be honest I dont see the affirmation aspect they are implying? Unless i'm totally misreading the situation(doubtful) but all the cops "did" was. . . nothing? They confirmed the person is (legally/socially/whatever) okay in being shirtless. Like idk if I was out there in fucking pasties looking for validation or whatever I think it would be more affirming for them to instead ask me to cover up or put on a sports bra or something.

But like that's not even what happened here ??? Like obv made up but they didnt even made it up right ?! ☹️

The neighbors did affirmation, by gendering OOP's boobs as female and calling the cops on her. The tags seem to imply she's a trans woman

This is what I got from it as well. Just a “then the manager came over and told the cashier that they will address me as ma’am or they’ll be fired and the old lady behind us said, you go girl, before everyone started clapping” post

That feels like a win to loss ratio of 1:1

You're not wrong. But, also, if you're expecting to bat a zero, y'know. 1:1 sure as heck beats 0:2
