Dehumanizing bigots is bad, not because I want to be nice to them, but because they are human beings and they serve as a reminder that anyone is capable of evil ideation and action. Violent bigots are not fundamentally different beings from you. They are human beings, who have developed a reactionary and destructive belief system due to their circumstances combined with their biases. In a different timeline, that could've been you. Anyone can be radicalized. Nobody is immune to propaganda, not even the person reading this.

my dash did a thing

i think people don't know how to differentiate between hard access issues and soft access issues, or don't want to. a lot of access issues aren't clearly one or the other but having no ramps is a hard access issue for obligate wheelchair users. you've gotta stop comparing every accessibility issue to ramps.

because when you compare a soft access issue (an issue which makes accessing somewhere or something painful, difficult, insulting, frustrating, etc) with a hard access issue (an issue which makes accessing somewhere or something impossible) then you inadvertently imply that the persons who experience those hard access issues don't also experience soft access issues.

like say you have a disabled student in a wheelchair. education is famously inaccessible, so everyone says "not providing this is like not providing a ramp." but it's not, firstly because they don't even provide ramps much of the time. like they straight up aren't doing that and you're acting like it's this horrible impossibility that we should understand is super bad so you can compare your own thing to it. which is just incorrect when they're not doing it.

but let's say there's a ramp. so there's a ramp but it's a 5 minute detour to get to so the wheelchair user is always late. the desks are too high to see past, the lecture hall has automated doors but no dedicated wheelchair space so they have to sit off side. can they see properly? does someone catch them up with the missed introduction? where will they take notes?

and the accessible route can be even longer than a 5 minute detour. the route might be round back, next to all the trash/rubbish. that's not dignified but it's also not sanitary either, which is dangerous to disabled people. is it round back where everyone smokes? i sure hope that wheelchair user has no respiratory issues. are they getting penalised for being late all the time? will that affect their attendance? what if they're an international student on a visa and need high attendance to stay in the country? there's a million soft access issues that are present even if the bare minimum of basic access (can i get inside) is met. but yeah there's a ramp. so whatever i guess

i don't care if people think i'm weird for saying this but i do not care if a trans person is "cringey", if a disabled person is "cringey", if someone's interests are too "loud" i just genuinely do not care, it is none of my business and honestly good on them for being who they are. people are WAY too comfortable making fun of and bullying marginalized people who aren't "cool" to yall. I don't have to be cool to be respected. A lot of yall will see someone who is just existing as themselves and become so butthurt and i think it's because yall aren't as comfortable in yourselves as those people being proud about themselves are. You guys want to say that people aren't "actually disabled" or aren't "actually trans" or aren't "actually __" because they just live and thrive in themselves better than yall do. come on now. The internet has gotten way too fucking comfortable bullying people and has excused way too much hatred for people who aren't just existing all because yall don't think they meet your standards of what's "cool". and no xyz doesn't "actually" make someone cringey, if they aren't hurting anyone i quite frankly do not care, and if they are hurting someone that should be the main critique not what their interests are, not if they're disabled, not if they're queer, it should be the harmful actions.

this quote from hbomberguy’s plagiarism video really resonated with me:

fat trans people. you agree. reblog

Bitches will find a fictional man attractive and then immediately imagine him in situations where he is losing alarming amounts of blood

it rly is weird how theres this culture in progressive spaces where like you can be as mean, as CRUEL even, as you want as long as youre not being explicitly bigoted towards any marginalized group of people and still be seen as a really good person with good morals who nobody is allowed to have beef with bc theyve never done anything racist or homophobic

politically correct behavior devoid of compassion for humanity as a whole is a callous performance and nothing more
