It sounds to me like the OP is specifically calling out non-disabled people. Maybe I'm reading it wrong? But it seems more like they're concerned with people that like to complain rather than critique
- MBCook 1y agoThey are, but it’s an odd critique. If we ignore the tone, they’re basically suggesting that it’s unfair for people without impairments (A) to boost posts from the visually impaired (B) complaining about issues, because the As don’t face the issues. Which would reduce the number and visibility posts dramatically. Effectively silencing the B users to a large degree. But I don’t that’s truly intended. This piece seems pretty clearly born out of frustration and emotion.
- godelski 1y agoNo they're upset that some people just want to complain. They're okay with critiques (complaint != critique) but saying that only getting complaints is demoralizing and makes it hard for people who are actually trying to get shit done. I don't know what's hard to understand about this. It's a pretty universal human experience. We've all had to listen to people just complain and experience how that makes us want to just say "fuck it" and stop doing the thing. That's it. Nothing more. Stop trying to twist this into things. You can read it as "shut up or pony up".
