Y'all, it is 2026, stop using bigoted language as insults. We'd be upset if someone said his actions were gay as an insult, correct? Can we please not have to fight for every marginalized group to be treated with respect for all of eternity? K thanks.

Hach, was freue ich mich auf den Tag, an dem Menschen nicht mehr von "auf taube Ohren stoßen" und "blind folgen" sprechen, wenn sie Ignoranz, fehlendes kritisches Denken, Lernunwilligkeit oder Sturheit etc meinen.
Ich werde ihn aber wohl nicht mehr erleben.

Leftists vs. Ableism (Rant)
Leftists vs. Ableism (Rant) YouTube video by Don Atlus

Felt so pressed about the growing ableism in the leftist community (or is it the growing leftism in the ableist community???) that I recorded a lil rant.

Original post on tech.lgbt

Ableists act as if disability is something new. That because "autism" is a newish diagnosis that autistic people have not always existed. That because they do not see epileptics in public, that epileptics must be exceptionally rare.

There is nothing new about disability. We read of disabled […]

I’m with Aslynn Romano:

Uta Frith “the spectrum has collapsed” is very very
WRONG!

#Ableism always is very wrong.

In these days it is seriously EVIL to deny the existance of a broad SPECTRUM of #Autistic people, our ND-struggles, our needs and the good we bring!

#TeamAuDHD

If she [Uta Frith] is saying that increased access to community, insight, resources, and support (which statistically reduces risk of death by suicide) has somehow undermined her [Uta’s] life's work...” that “the spectrum has collapsed”

‘IT IS FOOLISH!’
says
Aslynn Romano

So true Aslynn!

Their deportation was unconstitutional, & that's bad enough. But to totally silence a child because of #Racism & inhumane #Ableism is truly disgusting. This is what makes America great? We're the monster, the villain, & the demon wrapped up in a stained flag. Shame on us all.

A Tumblr post by Scarlet-titan that reads "autistic person: (makes a joke that would offend an allistic person). Allistic person: Don't be such an asshole. You're autism is no excuse to not know that would hurt my feelings. Allistic person:(makes a joke that would offend an autistic person). Allistic person: You see, your autism makes you unable to understand my type of humor. I shouldn't have to apologize to you. Really you should apologize to me for being offended."

NT people demanding I apologize to them for not liking their jokes is one of the most common interactions I had with them growing up

#Ableism and anti- #disability sentiment is something like an original #prejudice.

There's a pre-existing and enduring permission to devalue disabled lives.

Other marginalised and excluded groups suffer discrimination in part because they have been framed as quasi 'disabled' in some way.

A tumblr post with the poster cropped out that says "Don't call me high function. Let me tell you something about autism. I know an autistic person who: Can usually make eye contact for short periods of time. Can usually understand bod language. Can usually understand sarcasm. Rarely goes non-verbal. Rarely has meltdowns or shut downs. Does not stim loudly in front of other people. This person does not look autistic, they can hold conversations and pass as neurotypical. They seem to be 'high functioning'". "I also know an autistic person who: often can not go to the store alone. Often cannot tolerate being touched. Often forgets to do things like shower or eat. Often cannot change tasks/start a new task without intervention even for important things like switching from browsing tumblr to getting food. Often gets disoriented by sensory overload in stores, schools, workplaces restaurants and even just walking down the street. Often cannot maintain focus long enough to watch anything but simple cartoons or read anything but simple comics". This person will likely never function independently, complete college or have a job. They will likely always require support from family, friends or partners. They seem to be 'low functioning'" "Guess what? They're both me".

Some people need more help than others, yes, but that does not mean help needed can, or should, be described using a line. There is no singular value to describe help needed. The discussion should always be "help with what?"

Here’s hoping my nasty ableist neighbour isn’t cunty today just because she’s been instructed to park her car inside her garage so as to allow others access to driveway/common area. I’ve nominated her for Ableist Cunt of the Year #ableism

HuffPost Launches 'Voices of Disabled People' Section to Amplify Authentic Disability Narratives HuffPost has launched a new section called 'Voices of Disabled People,' dedicated to sharing authentic stories from disabled individuals and communities. In a letter from Rajul Punjabi-Johnson, Director of HuffPost Voices, the launch is introduced with a personal anecdote about a close friend who experienced a stroke at age 23, resulting in locked-in syndrome. Despite severe challenges, she regained much of her life through intensive rehabilitation and adapted by starting a blog using eye-tracking technology, eventually pursuing an MFA and writing a book. The editor emphasizes that storytelling allows people to own their narratives, resist limitations, and view disability as one aspect of identity rather than a defect needing repair. The section avoids 'inspiration porn,' tokenism, or sensationalism, instead focusing on honest, timely, and intersectional perspectives that challenge ableism and celebrate joy and truth. With more than 1 in 4 Americans living with a disability, the initiative seeks to expand definitions and provide a dedicated platform. The launch coincides with the 2026 Winter Paralympics, including coverage like an interview with Paralympian Oksana Masters on visibility. An advisory team of community members, including dancer Samantha Figgins, Councilperson Shahana Hanif, and activist Cozashay Marie, will guide content for authenticity. The section also aims to address ongoing threats to disabled rights under the current U.S. administration by fostering unapologetic dialogue and collective action.

HELLO, the United States Constitution has been continuously amended to include previously excluded groups of humans who were in previous time periods considered "inferior & unprepared for democracy."

Don't get me started on how that shit sounds to me like #Ableism, #Eugenics, #Racism, etc.! 🤬

Unmasking can be incredibly hard, anybody got stories on that they want to share?
