If people had reading comprehension they'd already know I'm not bigoted toward disabled people.
People want to make a problem because I dared to suggest our country protect all of its people. There's nothing morally wrong with my stance. I'm not bitching and moaning at a parking space or a ramp. I'm bitching about the fact my country will never act to protect me, because I don't fit the intersectional chart.
Identity-based protection is discrimination. Make excuses all you want but I'll abandon any group that won't offer me equal protection.
- ameister14 3y agoSo you're just a socialist, then? Weird way to put it.
- zlg_codes 3y agoNo, I want my country to honor its founding document, specifically the 14th amendment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal_Protection_Clause https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal_Protection_Clause
- ameister14 3y agoThe 14th amendment isn't a part of the founding document, and it does. If you are in a similar circumstance to someone, you are treated the same. If you are in a wheelchair and someone else isn't, you are not in the same circumstances. Your point really seems to be 'why doesn't the government give me exactly the same thing they give the less fortunate.' The answer is, you don't need it to put yourself in a position to compete. They do.
