Physicians Assistant yelling “HELP ME” while stealing a CitiBike ?

Why are people still saying she "fake cried"?

She is sitting on a bike. A man walks up and attempts to push her off of it while he scans the QR code and unlocks the bike. Three other men surround her and tell her it's not her bike and she can't have it.

She isn't fake crying. She is actually upset. Sorry her manifestation of being upset/frustrated does not read as "genuine" to you. It's kind of irrelevant since she did nothing wrong (except cry in a way you find insufficiently convincing I guess?) and this group of men bullied her off a bike.

And she does go rent another bike. They successfully steal the first one from her, she goes and rents another one. The entire interaction lasts maybe two minutes and then she gives up and goes to another bike. How long is an acceptable length of time to try and stand up for yourself? How much liquid must a person's tears produce to be genuine? Please police this woman's behavior more while a group of men physically intimidate her and demand she get off a bike that was available when she sat on it.


There were no tears. She wasn't actually crying. Just like she wasn't actually in need of help when she casually, almost in a bored way, yelled "help" in a weird expressionless way while looking right at one of the kids.

So you think they forced her off the bike but still think she's unreasonable because her response was not "oh, okay, yes I will move since you physically intimidated me into doing so"?

Ok.

No, I’m saying someone who is concerned with her safety (and that of her fetus) would take the path of least resistance. Why would anyone put up a fight over a bike they hadn’t rented yet when there’s an available one right next to it? Only someone who welcomes confrontation would do that.


A person with a sense of dignity who doesn't want to live in a world where people can just physically bully you until you acquiesce.

Also maybe someone who just spent a full shift of work at a job where people criticize, complain, blame, and scapegoat you all day. Maybe she'd just had enough.

So you agree that she was welcoming confrontation at that point?


Standing up for yourself in a calm way (yes, she stays calm) is not "welcoming confrontation."

So she was stealing, or not? Just to be clear.

Because it sure seems like some people are mad about how she reacted when HE cut in line, now that it’s clear she was never stealing at all.


It’s only clear on DCUM that she wasn’t stealing bc DCUM is full of people like her. The rest of the world sees her for the person she is.


Watch the video.

She is sitting on the bike.

20 second into the video, he uses his phone to unlock the bike.

Where is she "stealing" the bike.

Clearly the overlap of people sympathizing with the woman here and people cheering killing black people with headlocks on the subway is near 100%.

Seriously?

Yes, seriously. That’s what the majority of pregnant women would do.


Would the majority of non-pregnant men physically force a pregnant woman off a bike that she was trying to rent?

Why are we even evaluating her behavior. The men in the video are the ones being problematic.


You clearly never watched the video and are instead trolling. She was never physically forced to do anything.

NP

We don’t know if she was “welcoming” it, which is way different than being sick of putting up with other peoples ridiculous sh¡t. I’m guessing the former is more likely.

There’s nothing in the video that makes them problematic. Either the guy had rented that bike or he truly believed he had. None of the men did anything but ask her to give up the bike one of them had rented. They didn’t threaten her, curse her out, call her names or physically assault her. Her questionable crying was the only indication that she was scared. She ignored the obvious solution, which was to rent another readily available bike. She never once disputed that the guy had rented the bike and claimed that she had.

If anything, she's trying to physically force him off the bike, but DCUM doesn't want to see that because white woman solidarity is incredible.

Yes, DCUM has some people capable of critical thinking while the Twitter lynch mob lacks any of those skills. It’s true.


DCUM is full of people who never think they are the problem.

We’re saying, she fake cried because it was obvious bad acting and fake! It was worse than Amber Heard’s fake crying.


But she had a reason to cry! They took the bike from her and intimidated her until she moved. How can the crying be fake or "acting" if the actual facts of what is happening in the video are a justifiable reason to be upset?

You are mad at her for not performing her victimhood in a sympathetic enough way for you. Women cannot freaking win. If we cry, we're faking. If we don't cry, we're faking. Meanwhile, some guy is shoving us off a bike and taking it from us and no one cares because he "sounds genuine."

I feel like I'm in Upsidedownland.


You are in upside down land bc you have concocted a story to benefit a woman you feel a connection too. She isn’t a victim and she isn’t being bullied or threatened. She was spoken to calmly. If she was actually worried about her safety she would’ve left. She would’ve called police.


Then first time I watched this video, I actually assumed I was being told the truth that she was stealing the bike, was fake crying, and was another racist "Karen" trying to endanger black men.

Then I watched it again. It's not what happens. The "if she was being threatened, she would have left" line is so similar to what people say about abuse survivors ("if she didn't want it, she wouldn't have worn a short skirt" "if he was beating her, she could have left him").

Is this what you always do when you’ve been proven wrong? Bring up a completely unrelated set of facts to muddy the water?

He isn't on the bike. She is sitting on the bike. How can she force him off a bike she is sitting on.

Yes, she’s trying to force him to let go of the bike he tried to cut in line to take from her.

What’s your point?

Same. Especially because, I agree, she doesn’t seem genuinely distressed. And she probably wasn’t.

But she was standing up to people bullying her. Not a thief.
