One of the things I’ve realized about getting older is that I’ve lost respect for a lot of people and organizations I used to think were infallible.
I guess you live and you learn, right…?
What have you slowly lost respect for?
Here’s how people on AskReddit answered that question. Let’s see what they had to say.
1. Blizzard.
“Blizzard entertainment.
I remember playing the original Warcraft II and III, as well as Diablo I and II. Then when WOW came out was amazing.
Over the years though they have fallen from grace to become one of the worst gaming companies there is.”
2. Scandalous.
“Hockey Canada.
With all the s**ual assaults coming to life right now and the organization covering up the players’ assaults, it’s just sickening.
Pure evil.”
3. Pretty much.
“Adults.
Now that I’m an adult I realize we’re a bunch of morons.”
4. The studio system.
“Movie studios (the major ones).
They just don’t give a s**t anymore as they churn out the same formulaic c**p year in and year out now. There’s no originality and they don’t even care to try anymore.
Then, they complain that people aren’t going to the movies anymore.”
5. Journalism.
“The press.
I wanted to be a journalist when I was younger. Bring out news from the mundane to the indepth complexities of governments and companies. Deliver it objectively, with all facts present.
Now, any moron who writes an article calls themselves either an expert in the field or a journalist. Articles are sensationalised, clickbait galore.
News isnt objective anymore its just… political spectrum now. I used to think it was just the USA but alas.. here too.”
6. They can be obnoxious.
“Tourists.
We welcome you with open arms into our town/region and all you do is bring sh**ty temper tantrums and litter everywhere. I’ve even caught some p**sing in the gutters out front of local shops.
We’re sick of you and because of you. Take your money and p**s off.”
7. Hypocrisy.
“Body positivity movement.
Don’t get me wrong, as a fat woman myself I loved it in the beginning, but then they took it too far. Starting to exclude people because they weren’t big and say every man that didn’t like a curvy woman was fat phobic, as if they don’t have preferences.
Having a preference is perfectly normal. We ALL have them. To me, it just turned into hypocrisy.”
8. Amen!
“Religious hypocrites.
Using the word of God when they want to win an argument.”
9. What’s up, Doc?
“I am a chemist so I have a very healthy trust in science. But after my medical issues, I have a genuine distrust of doctors and their bulls**t.
I had problems with swallowing food and intense pain of doing it for about 2 weeks. I couldn’t do anything because I so weak and in pain. I had to go to 3 different doctors all telling me different things about what was wrong for a 4th to tell me that I probably had a Hiatal Hernia.
Then they had the audacity to say if I can get the biopsy in a month. I had already lost 10 pounds by that point. I wasn’t going to wait any more and honestly lost my cool at the poor receptionist. I felt bad about it afterward but the absolute disinterest in my suffering was something I couldn’t tolerate.
Anyway, the receptionist was kind enough to set my biopsy for the next day (Why the f**k was that not an option to begin with?). Got the procedure done and then got medication to treat my hernia.”
10. Annoying.
“TikTok.
It went from people making short funny comedy sketches to 14-year-old messing around causing property damage, creating the worst dances known to man and speeding up songs and calling them remixes.
Plus TikTok breaches privacy, even more so than most social media.”
11. He’s everywhere.
“Elon Musk.
He went from amazing tech innovator to out of touch a**hole in a few short years.
Realistically he was probably always a terrible person, but increasing amounts of money and fame made it more obvious.”
12. France.
“My country, France.
I’ve never respected it very much, but these last 5 years showed more and more clearly how s**tty of a place it is.”
What have you lost all respect for?
Tell us what you think in the comments.
We look forward to it!
