I served with honor as a combat veteran, I am transgender. I will not be told by white supremacist rapists, pedophiles and felons that *I* am dishonorable for existing. The coward Trump never served, dodged the draft. He is pathetic.

"No disabled people use this so why do we need to make it more accessible?"
Have you ever considered that the very reason they're not using it, is because it's inaccessible?
And even if no disabled people do use it, that's not an excuse imo. Accessibility should be standard.

This is … insane. The 18th c. political mindset was *rife* with concerns about “tyranny of the minority”—or, as they would have put it, “tyranny.”
The Framers feared tyranny of the majority. They didn’t anticipate tyranny of the minority.

Something I learned from interviewing survivors of abuse and institutional betrayal is that by being willing to identify a problem, you are often treated as the problem. The institution will try to get rid of you instead of the problem. To me, this also speaks to the way the left is treated broadly

Guys, I love all of you, but the answer to RFK, Jr. is not that autistic adults hold jobs, pay taxes, and get laid, it's that everyone deserves to live even if they can't work, pay taxes, or get laid.

Are the people telling you to post your activism and civil disobedience going to pay your bail? Pay your rent or mortgage and groceries whilst you're incarcerated awaiting trial? Going to get you your job back if you're fired?
No?
