ITT a bunch of fucking losers claiming to have hearing problems and would rather be a dick in public than invest in proper headphones.
Note on the claim part, I don’t believe a fraction of the assholes here, just trying to justify their assholery. People with legitimate hearing issues tend to accept the support technology that’s readily available these days. I spend quite a bit of time around folks who are actually hard of hearing.
Well, the guy you are responding to is maybe only thinking of people whose hearing is diminished in some manner. Not people whose hearing is otherwise incapacitated through something like tinnitus or like the other poster in here who has auditory dyslexia. Both of whom may be inconvenienced by headphones or earbuds and have an easier time with speaker phone than those options. Maybe try to explain how you think they are being insensitive or lacking empathy rather than just accusing them of such without explanation.
Add to that the amount of headphones out there that do help with various ear issues is growing and the prices are not that heavy.
They have bone conduction ear phones now that can be picked up online. Your skull can hear for you now. This is the same technology as what hearing aids use and you can just wire it up as headphones to your phone now
I was just reading about these yesterday. They basically bypass your eardrum so they’re really good for people with hearing loss who still want to use headphones. Definitely check them out if you think they’ll work for you.

Even if they do have hearing issues, a phone pressed against your ear will sound much louder with much greater clarity compared to the speaker mode.
You don’t get it and you lack empathy. Got it.
I know right? Like how hearing aids are designed to be held a foot and a half from the head. These people need to be more sensitive
You don’t get it and you lack empathy. It’s a pretty straight-forward statement. Don’t think I need to expand.

Which may be the case, but being immediately dismissive like you are isn’t exactly going to get them on your side now, is it?
There is no side, it’s a fact and if you can’t have some empathy for people with hearing issue then what can I say to change your mind?!

I’ll accept that, well spoken.
No, you don’t get it and lack empathy.

Yo, that’s dope. As someone who is partially deaf, but mostly hears fine, I’m curious about this.

Yeah I saw several variances available on Amazon just in the past week. Might be worth checking out or seeing how they rate

Of course you do. You’re not a raging prick.
