yeah i agree, i do think that like 90 percent of the ones i associate with are disabled. it's one of the reasons i avoid most radicalism outside of those i am in affinity with. those same radicals tend to be pretty bad in many ways and are normally of the "must constantly be productive activists" mindset. we have so many of those in boston and they all pat themselves on the backs and are super cliquey and basically don't talk to you unless you are also "active"
ETAthis is an intra-community issue for disabled people, and as such, onlydisabled voices are allowed in this discussion.
exactly,yet you said in your reply to the ask, “...major myopia of almost allradicals, including the well meaning ones, who often don’t think ofchildren or the elderly because they are not members of either group, whereasplenty of radicals are disabled.”
you said it yourself, that’s justthe radicals you associate with. ithink that saying that “plenty of radicals (i know) are disabled” obscuresand and maybe even silences any criticism of radicals and activism that disabledpeople have
