This Is Ableism

✨RADQUEER EDITION✨

[radqueer-this-is-ableism]

I saw the radqueer versions of this-is-transandrophobia and this-is-transmisogyny and then I saw the "normal" this-is-ableism blog say "you can't choose to be delusional" so uh. I made this.

This is just the this-is-ableism blog but for radqueers. Yes transableds are allowed because y'all experience ableism too.

Run by a plural with collective autism + PTSD and prolly some other mental disabilties too and some transabled alters.

That's it. Submit whatever you need to :3

is it ableism whenever my friend says something way too fast and i ask them to say it again slower (because of me having troubles with processing things due to my mental disorders) and they just say "nevermind" and they get mad at me when i try to ask what they said before? this is a very frusterating thing for me to experience

This is ableism.

I hate beimg compared to a drunk person when I walk because I have FND and at times walka bit funny. I also hate how people tell me its just because I am fat. I am 5'3 and 215 pounds but stil it's driving me crazy. Also saying I did this to myself because I'm a radqueer and I support "nasty" pedophiles and zoophiles that "deserve to die". Also apparently that means I deserve to die because I support them. People are interesting. Especially since this is parents I am talking about.

This is ableism.

Our mom has so, so, so many disorders and health issues (physically, mental, autoimmune, etc). And most, if not all, are or can be genetic! But she gets upset at us for having the same symptoms a lot of the time, especially physical and autoimmune ones (because we're "too young"/"not old"). And also with the mental health shit she just acts weird about it to the point we got uncomfortable talking about it with her! We tried to hint our DID to her before but her first question was "omg are they telling you to hurt people or yourself???" so we never mentioned it again. Plus with mental health she thinks that if we don't feel okay we either need to be medicated (we hate medication cause we can barely swallow pills) or go to a psych ward (traumatized from the one time we went). Even though she herself is bipolar II and her medication doesn't even stop her depressive or hypomanic episodes. So ableist and hypocritical we guess.

This is ableism (and hypocrisy).

Transharmed cant get mental health support for their transtrauma and Melody thinks it’s ableism. It doesn’t matter if someone didn’t “actually” experience grooming or torture or something else, if someone is hurting as if it did happen they deserve help.

This is ableism (I think).

Telling others how they “should” experience their disability is ableism

This is ableism.

This is ableism.

My school counselor was an absolute angel to me until I started to display psychotic symptoms.

I'd come see her for minor issues at the beginning of the year, and she'd help me immensely and even follow up with me a week or so afterwards.

However, when I was at the lowest moment of my life (dissociative episode + uknowing stimulant-induced psychosis), she did absolutely nothing but call my parents.

Maybe I'm the entitled one here. I know that school counselors aren't trained for this stuff. But it still kinda hurt.

I told her that I was unable to think during class (like, at all) and needed some help contacting teachers and asking for any possible accommodations they'd be willing to provide. I told her I just wanted a bit of help managing the stress that comes with a major amount of hallucinations. I asked her for help that I DIDN'T THINK would be very hard to provide, and she did nothing but let me stay in her office for 20 minutes or so after we finished talking.

I'm still overly bitter about it because I've always viewed school counselors as safe people. But she didn't even follow up with me, which you THINK would be pretty fucking important for someone who was actively experiencing a psychotic episode. It just makes me feel so unwelcome whenever I think about it.

This is ableism. I think.

I’m not saying my teachers are ableist but the school system as a whole has ableism in it. Basically I try to skip classes I’m not good at to study for classes I am good at, I’m already allowed to skip classes to take breaks and I time it such that I won’t need to skip the classes that matter. I only need a certain subjects (literature, humanities, English, art) to be good enough for me to submit into the school that I want to focus on my special interest (I wanna do social work). The rest is not only unneeded for my next school it’s unneeded for my future. But I’ve been scolded a bunch of times for using my “privilege” to just skip classes I “don’t like” and that “it’s public school not YOUR school”. I feel like in a perfect world where everyone’s abilities and disabilities were taken into consideration, people would be able to focus on what they excel at instead of being forced to be all rounders just cuz.

This is ableism.

I’m not gonna name names but a callout post said to the individual that they were calling out to get a job… 🥹

This is ableism.

my cisautism makes it so i can’t think critically well and i can’t tell much between my opinions and other peoples’ opinions and being told that has to mean i’m being groomed by radqueers and my radical beliefs were just manipulated into me

This was a little difficult to understand but I think I got it

This is ableism

I was told that apparently since I'm a radqueer I deserve my physical and mental disabilties because I wanted them in the first place when I never said I wanted the ones I have. Saying that I deserve to suffer to see what its like for truly disabled people. All because I am transabled and people found out?

That seems a bit wrong to me. Because people really don't understand what beinf transabled is. Just because im radqueer and transabled doesn't mean I enjoy my suffering or suffer any less than those who aren't radqueer. This may not be ableism but it's just driving me up a wall.

This is ableism and radqueermisia.

[radqueer-this-is-ableism]

apparently since im not a doctor with a title and im not diagnosed by one my pain isnt real and theres nothing wrong with me, yeah that mskes sense

This is ableism.

I would like to submit my hate anon

This is ableism.

Just saw an anti-transautistic person screenshotting a post from a cisautistic posting in support of transautistics saying that they don’t belong in the autistic community. Despite saying that they’re cisautistic.

I don’t understand it. Like, so what if we have different opinions?

I’m so tempted to try to debate them. I hate this.

This is ableism.
