Shit kinda annoying ngl

[@soda8736]

Yea they're are so biased . They pick and choose

[@xt23llx82]

I understand flip, but I don’t think he understands the abuse of power when it comes to employees. Some people do things completely out of fear and fear alone is enough to make you do things you would never do otherwise.

[@douglasjohnson6033]

He clearly doesnt get it.

[@MRLONG758]

He ignorant.

[@electrixfyingipod6206]

It’s hard to “just leave” when you got bills to pay put food on the table or even kids to take care of. Let’s say they just leave they don’t know when they’re next job will be. If theses things are true she should absolutely get sued as the boss you have a obligation to not create a hostile work environment.

[@MRLONG758]

@electrixfyingipod6206 exactly. Not to mention. Fat background dancers wasn't really a thing. Lizzo made it a thing. So if she fires you, it's almost a guarantee you won't get another job.

[@djuanboyd616]

[@kashmando]

This podcast talking bout work environments is funny given the history 😂

[@jgivens637]

Lizzo has to learn that as a boss you must have boundaries with your employees, and also she must learn that not everyone is in to explicit behavior like she is and as a boss you must make it known that this is a safe space for everyone and she failed at that.

[@island97]

The girls feeling pressured and they actually being pressured are two different things no ???

[@jgivens637]

@@island97 It doesn’t matter you as a boss cannot put them in a sexually charged situation, and alleged they were chanting for people to do certain explicit things and lizzo participated. You are a boss not their friend , it’s why almost every company has a no fraternizing with employees policy. Lizzo can take them out to dinner but when they go strip club go somewhere else

[@island97]

@@jgivens637 You still didnt address my original point . Feeling pressured and being pressured are two different things . In the entertainment business, its noraml for artists to party with their crew . This isnt a corporate environment so nuance has to be applied here. This whole lawsuit is just a money grab and I don't even like lizzo .

[@jgivens637]

@@island97 my dude it’s different when you are a boss , it’s not like it’s just ya homies. If your employees feel like they have to attend and participate in a sexual environment then you are gonna have a lawsuit. It doesnt matter how much pressure you put on them, they can prove that lizzo was taking them all the red light district and they proved that there was a reward for getting close to her. That’s inappropriate behavior, is it a little bs maybe but you have to know that boss /employee boundaries exist to avoid this , she’s gotta learn

[@P2TheO]

They missing the fact that these women won’t get the opportunity anywhere else. So by just leaving they are leaving the profession they love behind because of their size

[@kareem8250]

Lol uhh if it wasn't for lizzo they wouldn't be in that profession based on your logic.

[@P2TheO]

@@kareem8250 You know anybody else that hires plus sized dancers? Nobody, literally all the women said “I was at home doing nothing and then got this opportunity to tour with Lizzo”. So yes, walking away from Lizzo would be walking away from a career

[@kareem8250]

@@P2TheO yeah that's the point. They biting the hand that feeds them and you're making it like lizzo has to keep them hired for life because nobody else hires fat bitches

[@troubleshooter12z]

Flip is ignorant as hell. We live in 2023 where majority of the population is working check to check, one missed pay check from being on the street. These dancers are in an especially hectic position being a dancer is hard as hell on the body, mind and finances. Losing a Lizzo gig could be detrimental.

[@sheltonalexander6785]

Lizzo that loud big girl in H.S. who was corny but had cute friends and threw parties so you had to be down.

[@Crimson23Tide]

Nah I just fuck all her friends and make them hate her aye yn was ruining “friendships” left and right lol but girls can’t really be friends anyway

[@alcaesar887]

Flip has a horrible take. We saw man after man lose his role for how he imposed his power and made other people do things. You don’t understand how your boss could pressure you? Not everyone is in the same economic position (as mentioned by Flip to Ish). People can use their power to make people do things all the time

[@yu3l839]

We all gotta choice & a decision bro it’s no excuse, if you got the opportunity once u can get it again. Losing your morals for a bag is your choice. People needa take more accountability for things they accept

[@brandonjoyner2827]

[@Primetimefleegunner]

Flip comparing aspiring dancers to Joe Budden is crazy lol

[@Ducotevision]

Flip doesn’t understand most work environments…. That’s not a bad thing… he just doesn’t understand corporate America.

[@RashadMoncrief]

I'm so glad that film director trusted her gut. LIZZO does the same thing too. Her front gut, her side guts and back gut.

[@petdackson]

LOL 😂😅😅

[@MS-pd7fc]

Flip missed the whole point. Someone needs to ask flip how many fat backup dancers he has seen dancing with artists. Because im willing to bet he hasnt seen anything. So considering that, Lizzo has a fuck ton of power over those dancers. Unlike the documentarian, these dancers are unlikely to be able to simply quit and find a new dance gig. So yeah if you choice is to eat the banana or potentially never work as a dancer again, a ton of people will feel like they have no choice but to eat the banana

[@alcaesar887]

Exactly!!!! Especially how relationship based the music industry is. Parks too, regular music industry shit? No way bro. This is the stuff they call disgusting and abusive. They say it can’t happen cause “Lizzi can’t force them” when they don’t even know the dancers’ names 😭😭😭😭

[@ap1986]

Flips vocabulary is mind boggling. Contribution is a nogo but you just drop salacious out of nowhere 😂😂😂

[@melvinbarnett1910]

meaning he got none?

[@Jazz-on]

[@zaad5273]

3:53 Repercussions, not retributions. And no those two words are not the same thing lol

[@mr.coachapewtik]

What needs to happen to people like Flip is the same thing. They can’t see the forest before the trees. This dude is extremely ignorant and oblivious to work environments. When your somewhat of an entrepreneur and your own boss without having anyone under you can have you ignorant like he is. Sad take by him.

[@TriggaTreDay]

At the end of the day, all he is saying is people need to stop crying wolf and stand up for themselves in the moment even if it means losing their jobs or going against the grain. Nothing he said was wrong. Business owners get done just as dirty all the time, so it’s not just something that employers are doing to their employees. If the thing goes against your morals then leave. Isn’t that what the church teaches? There is no way I would let someone force me to eat anything out of another woman’s vj unless they had a gun to my head or was in the process of badly harming a family member. But a job isn’t that serious to me. These women didn’t want to risk not having a privileged life, because at the end of the day, there are way too many jobs that pay the same and better, they just want to keep traveling the world with a super star. I may sound like an asshole as well to some, but I’m sorry I respect myself way too much to let something like that happen to me in a harmless environment. Unless Lizzo was threatening to off them. Now that’s another whole situation.

[@jaredlhulum]

(In my John Witherspoon's voice) they say what goes AROUND comes AROUND: Lizzo was fat-shamed because she was doing the fat-shaming the whole time. That's the circle of life. Everything COORDINATES!

Flip, you can't just tell someone to tough it up and quit, in these types of positions... it's hard enough trying to become a credible artist with limited opportunities. No telling what they had to do to get in that position.

Desperate ppl do a lot of things out of fear and we all know this. Esp when u have a dream and feel like it's a once in a lifetime opportunity which is just what Hollywood wants you to think. They prey on ppl. Esp big women who want to be in show biz, it's a lot harder for them so theyre gonna take more than the avg person, just as ppl with low self esteem will take much more abuse than ppl who know their worth. Hollywood is FULL of ppl with low confidence, low self esteem, no self worth, want to be accepted, etc.

It’s crazy how this is flipped when it’s a woman vs a man. You cannot tell a person in the position it’s bullshit they feel intimidated or forced to enjoy things to impress their boss or fear of losing a job they need. You cannot just assume someone wants to enjoy a strip club or seeing a banana in a puss and not understand they may do it because they feel they have to. Your situation you’re comparing is NOT their situation.
