honestly there are plenty of things to make fun of abbott about without being ableist. js
wut idk, is hot wheels ableist or a compliment
like damn bruh, check out hot wheels
complimenting ability diversity sounds like the opposite of ableism to me js
My leg is busted and I can only hobble around with a cane. Finally got accepted into seeing a physical therapist, outlook is good, but its gonna take a while to recover.
Recently took a paratransit ride.
Fully disabled guy in a motorized wheelchair got on.
Within minutes, after he asked me what happened to me, we were joking about how he would probably, actually be able to beat me in a race.
Sounds like you made a friend!
The bus driver was actually great too, younger than me, maybe early or mid 20s, before the wheelchair bound guy got on, we bitched about microtransactions in games, and I was able to confirm that yes, games did not in fact always used to be like they are now, with dark patterns and what not... he sounded like a lot of his friends were trying to gaslight him into just accepting the enshittification as normal, that its always been like this.
Right I don't see how it's ableist or an insult. She didn't say it like it's a bad thing or associate it with any assumptions. It's not like she called him "Legless Wonder and his Half Pint Segway" or questioned if he can govern from a chair. It's closer to calling him Governor Brown Hair. Neutral. Silly at worst.
Would she have called Trump "President Hot Wheels"? No. It's clearly an ableist insult. Fuck her.
Would she have called Trump “President Hot Wheels”?
No, because that wouldn't make sense? I do mock Trump for his mental disabilities all of the time. Is that also ableist?
He earned it when he pulled the ladder up behind him. Fuck Greg Abbott
impressive that he climbed the ladder in the first place
All of a sudden the black lady slings back and now she has to reel it in and not be ableist?
I don't know, I see a distinction between mocking someone FOR BEING disabled, and mocking someone WHO IS disabled. This is the latter imo...
Meh, he shouldn't be such a vile sack of shit then
Wait, that was about Govenor Abbott of Texas? Yeah, that's just not right. There's so much other shit you can fling at him that would be better.
