I’m coming back long enough to address this bullshit that has apparently decided to circle around again:
First of all, my name is “Debi” - not debbie, not debie, not deby. I’ve told you this a dozen times; Quit being a fucking asshole for the sake of being a fucking asshole.
Second of all, I AM disabled BECAUSE of my agoraphobia. I am about 110% over you being a fucking douchewad who refuses to acknowledge that there are forms of disability that are NOT physical. Agoraphobia prevents me from leaving the house to earn a living, attend medical appointments, etc. Working from home isn’t always fucking feasible so maybe take two goddamned seconds to realize that you’re fucking wrong instead of doubling down on your never-ending ignorance of life outside of your little bubble of devoted followers.
Third, you apologized ONCE - and it wasn’t for reblogging the post in the first place, it was for doing so “uncritically”. That apology? It was never made to me, the person the post was fucking made about, the person who was told that I would be crushed by the cogs of capitalism, which would be it’s only success. Instead, I got to spend the weeks following being harassed on a regular basis and called a “Fucking freak” for being offended about it. You don’t have to like me, but you have to at least have enough brain cells to recognize that that was an incredibly fucked up line of thought to perpetuate.
Fourth and finally, I’m glad that you can continue to brush it off as “Oh, it was so long ago” - but for people like me, those who are disabled by invisible illnesses, it is our daily reality. We don’t just get to laugh it all off and move on with our lives. The dangerous stereotypes of “Oh, you’re not REALLY disabled” is something we have to fight against every. single. day. So maybe to you, this is all said and done - but for us, this is our daily reality.
