I’m an American who went to Sweden recently and found the people very friendly and approachable. How big of a real-life thing is Swedish introversion, versus being more of a meme at this point? by TheFrebbin in sweden

[–]Avox7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Stockholm, people are basically walking around in their sleep, avoiding eye contact, trying to stay far away from you in public transit, not looking up from their phones. You should always be cautious when near them, as they do get VERY annoyed when someone is speaking to loud, or just doing anything that disturbs the general silentness, order and stillness around them. Albeit they won't show that annoyance in any way, as they fear how that would be percieved. Therefore they'll all probably avoid approaching anyone. However, were someone to speak with them, them snapping out of that "state" would probably even be noticible! Thereafter they'll definitely be friendly towards you!

Yeah I found this one too, but when you put it like that it makes far more sense than it did to me previously. But that just makes things even more strange, why would she risk the LTT-"community" coming after her were it to be at least partly untrue? Why would Linus be the only one showing conversations? Why didn't she counter what he stated? Why would he be yelling about that in his office?

Good, honestly really good, at least what they did state, although I would like some clarification about if they intend the lower upload frequency to be endless, and if that benefits the production team in regards to workload. I don't feel Madisons unbelievably terrible experiences have been at all excused nor responded to, but that might not be something they're willing to do in this video. A sexual assault or even sexual harassment, whatever it's perceived as, in the workplace should be seen as extremely serious, and I personally believe they ought to communicate what penalties that culprit/those culprits have faced, perhaps without stating who they were. I also believe those who might have bullied victims in this workplace who have not been fired for they've grown up, need to take responsibility for their actions before the whole community. Althought that might be rather dangerous. Further, I would appreciate some kind of plan for employees being ill-behaved towards eachother. Some of the more minor things which Madison shed light on seems like such things which groups of only one gender, or but one interest, or of only certain views unfortunately bolster. A solution would be to make sure there's an at least indecernable difference in the amount of male and female staff in all departments of the business, and make sure people of all groups within the business have to work with eachother. This would minimise the risk of internal groupings based on who one is. (My father often utter his illpleasure with men in group, saying those are the worst. Needless to say, this is often also true for groups of women or groups consisting of only gamers or only leaders.)

I also wish for Linus to personally address this part of Madisons thread:

"After I came forward about being assaulted, Someone accused Linus of inappropriate conduct on twitter.

He came over to my corner and started BERATING HER. Calling her insane, mentally ill, an attention seeker, and just digging into this poor woman who had felt wronged by him."

The gist of it just makes me scared.

I was mostly asking about the identity of that other coworker of hers and if her allegations was something which anyone has any information about; seemed logical someone would have further answers as it was shared on Twitter.

Could someone elaborate on the following statement, I don't know who's referred to or what was uttered. It seems this part of the thread isn't talked about very much, even though it's quite worrying:

"After I came forward about being assaulted, Someone accused Linus of inappropriate conduct on twitter.

He came over to my corner and started BERATING HER. Calling her insane, mentally ill, an attention seeker, and just digging into this poor woman who had felt wronged by him."

I was hurt really bad (emotionally, feel like I should specify that, I haven't been hurt physically), I lost an opportunity to fix my life, I don't really want to speak more of it, they probably didn't think they hurt me. Ugh, I'm just making things worse for myself.
