BEEP BEEP ableism spotted
”look i get what you're saying but it's not a competition. you can talk about issues that paraplegics face without making it a comparison to neurodivergent people” -Pete
hi this is actually a weird and rude thing to say.
as this is actually a surprisingly common thing among able-bodied neurodivergent people, being one type of disabled is not a Shield against criticism.
as yes what Crippled-peeper said is correct!
the mortality rates are incredibly high for tetraplegics and for paraplegics, this is actually a major sore spot for a lot of people as they have lost many many loved ones to suicide and medical malpractice.
it is actually incredibly bad mortality rates, and what you are saying is in fact ableist and incredibly rude.
as also a lot of tetraplegics and paraplegics, are co-morbid with many different things including neurodiversity’s! As PTSD/Depression is very common among tetraplegics and paraplegics.
you are actually being very rude, I may not be a tetraplegic or paraplegic.
But I know many people who are and it’s not okay to just straight up ignore or insult people for wanting to bring up these things.
what crippled-peeper is saying is actually a satire and riff on the same able-bodied neurodivergents who do actually say these things to physically disabled people. I should know I’ve seen it with my own eyes many times.
yes I have adhd and I am also physically disabled, I have many things wrong with myself.
also though crippled-peeper you are incorrectly using Zionist, and using it to be discriminatory towards a random Jewish person.
just call them a dickhead or a asshole or something, no need to be erring on the side of antisemitism as yes that is antisemitism.
(I will further elaborate if needed)
you both need to take a look at yourselves and be better.
unlearn ableist rhetoric Pete it’s a very annoying and harmful thing to get behind.
and unlearn antisemitic rhetoric crippled-peeper, it’s very hard to recognise but I see your a good guy and I know it’s just because you haven’t had the chance to take a look at what you’re saying. I’m not saying this to be hateful and or rude, I am just bringing this up as you have not recognised that this sort of stuff is harmful. Thank you for listening.
“only 5% of adult ADHDers graduate college” is real devastating and all until I remember that 8% of tetraplegic people die within the first year of their injury and 4% of paraplegics die in the same first year and our 40-year survival rate following this are ONLY 47% for tetraplegics and 62% for paraplegics

low key its kind of hypocritical to run a blog about ableism but make posts with tons of undescribed images
youre alienating screen readers and visually impaired people
sorry, I’m working on it some of them take time.
There’s a reason I’m currently tagging them all as screenreader unfriendly and not image described.
as I need to make plain text and image described versions.
it genuinely takes a very long time to image describe 15 images, with a lot of text and things in it.
most of my posts are screenreader friendly it's just a few I don't know if the links make it not work.
I’m only human, and also slightly have processing difficulties and disorders.
I’m slow, I’m very slow at making things. It will be there and I will do it, I just have to put aside an afternoon to do it all.
I’ll try to image describe some today, but bear in mind that all of my audio descriptions will be wrong due to me having auditory processing problems.
#cripplepunk#i’m trying my best#it’s not that I don’t I just take way too long to do so#be patient with me I have honestly struggled with this my whole life#I will soon
