Stop belitteling my dsablity. You, as a non-disabled person, have absolutely no idea how much energy I have to invest to exist in your world and compensate for all the barriers that you are putting up (mostly unconsciously) to make it even harder. This is actually one reason why I am against euphemisms like differently abled. It might sound cosy from the perspective of a unexperienced outsider, but its just ignorance in reality.
There are so many things I can not do independently, and cant do with external help either because that is not always aviable, that I definitely feel disabled, not differently abled.
All of you have been spoiled by leftist ideas have absolutely no idea what are you doing and how patronising you actually are.
Its my life, I decide what words are appropriate. If you have been spoiled by language whitewashing, the problem is you, and not me.
- consteval 2y agoNobody is "belittling" anything, and the only reason you're resorting to that language is because you don't have anything of value to say. If you did, you'd actually say it. But no, let's just cry instead. Look, all I'm saying is that the changing of these words ISN'T baseless and there IS some thought behind it. Yes, you are disabled. But... you're not dis... abled. You ARE able to do things. That's not up for debate, so I'm not sure why you're arguing it. Will you really argue you're useless? No, you won't. > I decide what words are appropriate Absolutely not a soul on Earth is telling you this. Go ahead and drop the victim mentality, it makes you look really bad.
