Do you know what weaponized incompetence is?

[Subarugirl]

What do you think it is?

[purplepoppy]

Is it where you destroy a countries skill base by discouraging education or promoting nonsense jobs? Here in the UK we've got kids who want to be influencers and gamers and think education is pointless. I reckon in a few years we won't be able to function

[RandomGuy1030]

Or work for 30 an hour at a mcdonalds

[ohsheeT]

I'm not really for sure but I think it's when your lazy partner can not see past his nose. And thinks the world revolves around them and thinks his partner became his partner to be his mother caregiver etc. And won't get off his lazy ass and do something good for his partner like help clean the house do the dishes do the laundry cook dinner you know be a human being I'm not really for sure but I think it's something like that

[lightbulb27]

i assume "I don't know how to do that", therefore, I can't do it, you have to... so let me get back to my TV show.

this is the opposite of me, wife has to pull me out of tasks... albeit, sometimes, I'm still incompetent.

[Blackcosmo]

I think it means at times you say you are incapable of doing certain tasks you don't want to do. I also got some of this information from the image you showed. It seems like the guy is refusing to help the woman with cleaning (or something).

[PatriceONeal]

It's doing a poor job so that you aren't asked to do it again.

[Blackcosmo]

@PatriceONeal Oh that's even worse.

[MrJMM]

I think it is this weaponized incompetence is when a partner exaggerates their inability to perform simple tasks like cleaning, cooking, or making plans, to shift the burden of responsibility back to the other partner.

[MrJMM]

Autocorrect liked to add unnecessary words before I sent it so it makes it sound weird. What it meant to say was “I think that weaponized” and then continued.

[Lliam]

Is it like a person in a service position being deliberately unhelpful by feigning incompetence just to fuck you around. I think of some government bureaucrats.

[FilmGuy93]

I do know what it is! This is just my personal opinion, but it seems like 95% of what women consider weaponized incompetence is actually just women not clearly communicating what they actually want done.

[jshm2]

Yes.

But you've obviously a preconceived notion of it you want to make a drama about.

So you go right ahead with your myTake.

[Subarugirl]

Actually I just wanted to know how many people knew what it was. Thanks for contributing.

[ShadezMcgee]

Regardless of gender it is the exaggeration of one's capabilities, tending to fall around simple tasks.

If I may- what prompted the question?

[HeartFullOfGlue]

I'm not completely sure but I think its pretending to not be able to do certain things because you don't want to do it.

[Birdlegs]

That’s what I would do with my mom if she made me angry with how she told me to do things I would do it so poorly that she would come and fix it

[NathanDavis]

I did not know that was/there was a the term for it... but I instantly figured it out with the picture... lol

[ODC2112]

Weaponized incompetence is a form of projection with which some people complain in others that they do not do because they declare they are not capable, when they are the first to fail because they declare that they are not capable.

[RavVid]

Other than deliberately stuffing things up I don't know. I can see an accident happening with that bucket...

[Sixgunsound]

The war typical government employees wage on the people who pay their exorbitant salaries and benefit packages?

[AviatorTom]

From the picture, it sounds like the guy is a lazy SOB and is about to be weaponized by the woman dumping the wet contents of the bucket on his head.

[Paul_in_Indy]

I think it’s a phrase that doesn’t mean what you think it means.

[ArtemisSilver]

Basically just passive aggression and malicious compliance.

[Subarugirl]

Compliance?

[ArtemisSilver]

Like when you do something, but you do the absolute shittiest job possible. Think squidward

[notwoke]

having the least productive members of society elect the least capable leaders because they check the right "diversty" boz or because they look like them?

[JohnK123]

How does that image represents weaponized incompetence?

That’s purely just asking Bc I’m curious

[Subarugirl]

it was just one of first photos that popped up when I searched it

[SeekingVirginWife]

The guy in the picture is a perfect example of weaponized incompetence.

[exitseven]

I don't know but I bet it has something to do with Joe Biden.

[fireforeffect]

Yes, Examples are the Justice Department, the Treasury Department, The FBI, they IRS, and the joe Biden Administration.

[NYCQuestions1976]

Yes. It's the formula for most situational comedies.

[Texaskid1]

It's when you can't give no love in the love shack!!!

[Surely]

If you were to look that term up in the dictionary. Would you see a picture of Biden?

[IsoUser]

To be Perfectly Honest the Combination of Donald Trump's and Rudi Giuliani's minds Together LMFAO

[loveslongnails]

That's really very funny, and sadly, true.

[IsoUser]

I couldn't agree with you more Lmao

[Redstang88]

Not sure but it sounds like the job description of most politicians

[Snakeyes7]

I think of the Calvin and Hobbes joke when Calvin said that if you do a job poorly enough, you will not be asked to do it again.

[msc545]

It is feigned incompetence that is done in protest. Sometimes referred to as "passive-aggressive" behavior.

[Creampiekarl420]

[Shy_Steve]

I think it's when you accidentally Kill or severely Injure someone while being Incompetent, But I have been wrong before.

[Anonymous]

One needs to spend just 5 minutes around white women to find it out.

[Subarugirl]

Please feel free to elaborate if you are able.

[Opinion Owner]

WW feign incompetence to avoid having to do tasks, this happens a lot specially at the workplace.

[Subarugirl]

Yes you basically already said that, I was asking you you elaborate on specifics.

[Jamesshinobi]

you just said it perfectly clear yourself @Subarugirl you are the answer to your question

[Subarugirl]

@Jamesshinobi I asked someone else to elaborate on what they were trying to say and you took that as an invitation to join in with more vague comments?
Apparently you have difficulty with reading comprehension. I would recommend reading through again.

[AydenHazor]

Intentionally doing something poorly do someone else will take it on.

[krin_m]

Very much so! I used to call it selective helplessness.

[admles]

Yep, my ex used it frequently to get out of pretty much doing anything.

[superdonkey]

It's how we screw up mundane task on purpose so that we don't have to do it

[Fineold22]

Sounds like a good description of what some of my co-workers are good at.

[bamesjond0069]

Just punish your girl more till she figures it out.

[This_Is_My_Opinion8]

"You do it better. So you do it. No, I will never be as good as you at it."

[Anonymous]

Wasn’t that Joe Biden’s nickname during the Obama years?

[Anonymous]

When democrats try to lower the age to vote or when they encourage people who would financially depend on the system to move to America?

[Agape93]

I can make some jokes from that lol

[andreasderjuengere]

A ''republican hillbilly''?

[Dontaaaa]

That basically sounds like playing dumb.

[humanearth]

Yeah a leader of a Nation

[lofii]

Another silly coined term made up by the woke left

[Subarugirl]

How do you know who coined it? Since you know where the phrase originated feel free to share with the class.

[lofii]

Because you got this question idea and stole the picture from MSN a known leftist news organization.

I swear you guys have the intelligence of a fly 🪰

[Subarugirl]

So in other words you have no idea who coined the phrase... or where it originated...

[lofii]

I'm not arguing with you. Have a good day

[Subarugirl]

You're not answering the question either lol

[Jamie05rhs]

The Biden Administration?

[Boldy_Erin]

My ex boyfriend was guilty of this

[PatriceONeal]

Sounds like something a democrat made up

[Subarugirl]

Lol so you have no idea. I wish I could say I was surprised

[PatriceONeal]

/whoosh

[Subarugirl]

/woosh

[PatriceONeal]

Must be nice being a girl and drifting through life without having to do things like thinking or being genuine.

[PatriceONeal]

My answer could have simply been your name.

[Subarugirl]

It must nice being a man and not having to deal with gender discrimination and being born with a leg up for nothing other than having a penis.

[Subarugirl]

See how completely idiotic that sounds?

[PatriceONeal]

Yes becuase you are idiotic and none of that is close to being true. You have the leg up in society.

[Subarugirl]

That’s funny considering my parents are just about as conservative as it gets… it’s also funny because I’m not remotely democratic.

[PatriceONeal]

Has nothing to do with party affiliation. Democrat women and conservative women both get the advantages of being a woman.

[Subarugirl]

How so? I know you have a difficult time defending your pov but if you try really hard and rub those two brain cells together I bet you could.

[Subarugirl]

And men get the advantages of being men…

[PatriceONeal]

You can't keep that evil inside for more than 2 sentences lol.

Women are a protected class and American society is molded to make things easier for you. All thanks to "feminism" under the guise of equality. You have far more advantages than men do. Please stop living in denial in your tiny bubble.

[Subarugirl]

Which advantages son? Use specifics.

[Fuentes]

Trying to force LGBT in schools

[Tornado92]

Females I tell lyah bro 😂😂😂😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

[whiskeyontherocks]

Never heard of it till now

[driven159]

A person that doesn't help lazy goof off

[Tornado92]

Ur picture is racist!!!

[Subarugirl]

Why do you think that?

[Tornado92]

Why choose a black couple? Why not white?

[Subarugirl]

Because weaponized incompetence has nothing to do with melanin content and everything to do with character. It has absolutely nothing to do with skin color. Would it be racist if I chosen an Asian couple? Or middle eastern couple? Or a white couple? Or South American couple?

[Tornado92]

Out of all the race Why black couples?
R u trying to make us BLACK MEN BAD?
U R A BITCH !!!

[Subarugirl]

No I’m not, but at least I don’t try and sexually harass married women…

[Tornado92]

Do u shut ur mouth?

Stupid

[Subarugirl]

Does your brain have the cognitive capacity to realize that asking married women if they shave there pussy is totally pathetic…?

[FunkyMonkee]

Yes! Joe Biden!

[Kingofkings1992]

Sounds like a load of horseshit to me..,

[TotallyAlmost]

Washington, D. C.

[OddBeMe]

Inceldom.

[Jouth]

I don't know

[CubaPirate]

I'm clueless tbh

[RobEurope]

Sabotage.
